Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Guardian Sunmare reads like a midrange/value engine: a five‑five for five with Ward {2} that rewards committing it to combat by tutoring any nonland permanent with mana value three or less whenever it attacks while saddled. That attack trigger encourages a value plan—repeatedly cashing in combat steps to find cheap utility artifacts, creatures with enter‑the‑battlefield effects, small planeswalkers or key combo pieces—rather than pure aggro. Build around ways to reliably pay its Saddle 4 cost (mana acceleration or turn sequencing), give it evasion or haste so those triggers actually resolve, and include flicker or sacrifice synergies to make the fetched permanents do work immediately. Its Ward makes it resilient to removal, so clustering answers around reach or sweepers is wise. In multiplayer or Commander, Sunmare shines as a toolbox threat that tutors answers on demand; in constructed, lean into value‑midrange shells with low‑cost, high‑impact permanents and a couple of mana rocks to keep the engine online.
