Unrooted Ancestor — Abzan Remnant
Unrooted Ancestor is a compact, tactical creature that slots cleanly into sacrifice and tempo shells. The Near Mint Foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm shows the Spirit Cleric in a muted palette that suits Abzan flavor. With flash you can hold mana up and deploy it as a surprise blocker or an attacker that slips past removal, and its activated ability trades board presence for a short burst of indestructibility while tapping it to deny combat or activated responses.
Play it in decks that value graveyard synergy or incremental value. The Ancestor’s ability to sacrifice another creature pairs with token generators and sacrifice outlets, letting you preserve the main body through lethal blow or board wipes. The foil finish highlights the artwork’s spectral glow and fits collectors and competitive pilots alike. Add this Near Mint Foil to your Abzan toolkit and test lines of play that hinge on timing and resource conversion.
