Spartan Reach
The Spear of Leonidas is a compact tool for agressive red builds that rewards forward momentum. The spear turns any equipped attacker into a decision point each combat, offering double strike for lethal push, a legendary Phobos token to pressure blockers, or a card smoothing Revelation when your hand needs refresh. The Near Mint Foil print brings subtle shine to a historic motif and will sit nicely in a list or on the battlefield.
From a deckbuilding perspective the Spear of Leonidas reads like a suite of burn and advantage in one slot. Equip cost is small, the triggers are flexible, and the options let you pivot between closing the game and refilling resources. Play it on a trampler or an evasive creature and you gain consistent late game reach and occasional surprise tempo swings.
