Vanguard Seraph — Watchful Angel of Zendikar
Vanguard Seraph arrives as a reliable flying body that rewards lifegain timing and careful sequencing. Casting for {3}{W} yields a 3/3 Angel Warrior with Flying and a triggered ability that reads, Whenever you gain life for the first time each turn, surveil 1. That ability turns incidental lifegain into card selection, letting you sculpt the top of your library while advancing graveyard strategies. The foil finish in Near Mint condition highlights the art and makes it a neat inclusion for both play and collection.
The card sits naturally in lifegain shells, control lists that value incremental advantage, and graveyard synergy builds where surveil matters. Practical in limited as well, Vanguard Seraph trades favorably as a midrange threat that generates small but persistent card quality. Add it to your playset, test its triggers against opponent interaction, and use the foiled surface to keep track of your deck's polished edges.
