Description
Basri's Acolyte, designated as card number 8 in the Magic: The Gathering Core Set 2021 (M21), is a white Common creature that embodies the intersection of feline agility and divine devotion. Illustrated by Leesha Hannigan, this 4-mana Cat Cleric serves as a staple for players seeking reliable board presence and resource generation. From a gameplay perspective, Basri's Acolyte offers significant value through its lifelink ability, ensuring that damage dealt translates directly into life gain. Its most compelling feature is its triggered ability upon entering the battlefield: it allows the controller to place +1/+1 counters on up to two other target creatures. This flexibility makes it an excellent support piece in various strategies, enhancing the durability of existing units while establishing a strong board state. For collectors, this card represents a fundamental element of the M21 set, appealing to those who appreciate the intricate art and mechanical depth characteristic of Magic's core releases.
