Ancestor with an Agenda
Vengeful Ancestor is a compact but mean Spirit Dragon that fits into any red deck that values tempo and political leverage. The card casts for {2}{R}{R} and comes with Flying and a goad trigger when it enters or attacks, forcing an opposing creature into hostile duties until your next turn. In play it pressures blockers and creates cracks in enemy coordination while presenting a reliable 3 4 body in the air.
Experienced players use Vengeful Ancestor to punish overly safe boards and to push opponents into awkward combat choices. The secondary trigger that deals 1 damage to a creature controller when a goaded creature attacks turns incremental chip damage into a steady tax on opponents who keep responding to your aggression. Solid for multiplayer tables and Commander games, this near mint English printing from Commander Tarkir Dragonstorm is a practical inclusion for aggro shells and politics driven decks alike.
