Varis Leads the Charge
Varis, Silverymoon Ranger embodies the spirit of exploration and tactical prowess that Adventures in the Forgotten Realms celebrates. As a Legendary Human Elf Ranger, Varis offers both defensive versatility and a unique dungeon-crawling mechanic that rewards strategic casting. With reach to fend off airborne threats and ward 1 to deter targeted removal, Varis stands resilient on the battlefield, setting the stage for further expansion. The venture into the dungeon ability triggers upon casting creatures or planeswalkers, encouraging an aggressive yet measured deployment of your forces.
Completing dungeons through Varis’s effect generates 2/2 green Wolf tokens, providing a steady stream of board presence that synergizes well with token-enhancing cards or anthem effects. This card pairs naturally with other dungeon venture enablers and green ramp strategies, allowing you to leverage both board control and incremental advantage as you navigate each dungeon’s perils. Experienced players will appreciate Varis’s ability to blend defense, token generation, and synergy into a cohesive game plan that mirrors the spirit of classic adventuring parties.
