Skyward Sentinel
Warden of the Inner Sky brings a steady aerial presence that rewards board development and careful timing. As a 1 2 Human Soldier for {W}, it gains flying and vigilance once three or more counters sit on it, turning a modest body into a durable flier that can both attack and hold the line. The extended art foil surface gives the piece tabletop appeal while remaining practical for play.
The activated ability requires tapping three untapped artifacts and or creatures you control to place a +1/+1 counter on Warden of the Inner Sky and scry 1. That cost makes this card a payoff for decks that populate the battlefield with small tokens or artifacts you can tap for value. Use it to snowball incremental advantage and situationally lock in an air threat that also filters your draws through scrying.
