Elite Scaleguard

Description

Elite Scaleguard is a 2018 release from the Commander Anthology Volume II set within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified as card number 27 with set code CM2, this Uncommon creature card depicts a Human Soldier with a mana cost of four generic mana and one white mana. It functions as a five-mana-value entity that enters the battlefield with the ability to bolster two, allowing a controller to choose a creature with the least toughness among their controlled creatures and add two +1/+1 counters to it. Furthermore, the card provides a continuous effect where any creature you control with a +1/+1 counter on it causes a target creature the defending player controls to tap whenever it attacks. This mechanical synergy between bolster and triggered tapping effects makes the card a functional piece for Commander format gameplay. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Commander Anthology Volume II set or to utilize its unique board interaction capabilities in casual play. The inclusion of this card adds strategic depth to any deck built around +1/+1 counter themes or board control strategies.
