Serra Advocate

Description

Serra Advocate is a distinct entry in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, originating from the 2014 Duel Decks Anthology: Divine vs. Demonic release. Identified as card number 7 in the DVD set code, this Uncommon rarity card represents a pivotal moment in the Divine vs. Demonic theme that defined the anthology series. As a white mana Creature — Angel with a mana value of 4, it serves as a strategic piece for players seeking versatile board presence. The card’s design and mechanics are tailored for strategic depth. With a power and toughness of 2/2, it possesses the Flying ability, allowing it to evade many ground-based threats. Its activated ability offers significant tactical flexibility: by tapping the creature, players can target an attacking or blocking creature to grant it +2/+2 until the end of the turn. This capability makes the card a valuable asset for both offensive pushes and defensive stabilizations in gameplay. Art by Matthew D. Wilson, the card reflects the high-quality production values characteristic of the 2014 era of Magic: The Gathering.
