Warkite Marauder Takes the Wind
Warkite Marauder is a compact tempo tool for blue decks that trade board presence for disruptive attacks. A two one flier that taxes attention when it swings. Its attack trigger strips a single blocker of abilities and resets its base power and toughness to zero one until end of turn. Use it to clear a path for evasive damage or to neuter a key defensive creature before a larger strike.
From a lore angle this human pirate rides a trained warkite above the caverns and coastlines of Ixalan looking for weak spots in enemy formations. In practice the card rewards timing and target selection. It fits well in decks that want low cost flying bodies that also create tempo advantages and enable combat tricks that break stalemates.
