Armory Guard
Oracle Text
This creature has vigilance as long as you control a Gate.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Armory Guard is a tidy 3W giant soldier that reads as a lore-appropriate sentinel—its vigilance as long as you control a Gate makes it feel like a defender who only lets you march when the cityways are secure. In gameplay it best supports a control/tempo or midrange plan: a 2/5 body at four mana is an excellent tempo stabilizer against aggressive decks, trading favorably and tapping to attack when Gates are online. Build around it in Gate-themed shells by including multiple Gate lands and Gate-finding effects so vigilance is reliably active, and pair it with anthem effects (Honor of the Pure/Glorious Anthem-style) or removal-based tempo to convert its durability into board pressure. As a common it’s a budget-friendly main-deck blocker or sideboard answer to creature decks; avoid overcommitting if your Gate count is unreliable, and prioritize keeping at least two Gate sources so Armory Guard is more often a vigilance attacker than a dormant wall.
