Aerial Guide

Description

Aerial Guide is a Common Drake creature from the Magic: The Gathering Hour of Devastation expansion, released in 2017. Identified by card number 29, this blue mana cost card brings a versatile tool to the table for collectors and players alike. As a 3-mana creature with a power and toughness of 2/2, it serves as a solid early-game presence in formats that permit its use. Beyond its base stats, Aerial Guide possesses a triggered ability that activates whenever it attacks. Upon attacking, you may choose another target attacking creature to gain flying until the end of the turn. This flexibility allows players to coordinate multi-creature strikes, turning a single attacker into a threat that can reach the opponent's life total more effectively. Aerial Guide, illustrated by Sidharth Chaturvedi, represents the artistic and mechanical identity of this era. The flavor text, attributed to Neponem, vizier of Kefnet, adds narrative depth, reflecting the set's focus on turning obstacles into advantages. Whether you are building a library around blue strategies or simply appreciating the intricate design of common cards, this piece is a valuable addition to any organized play collection. The card's straightforward mechanics and iconic creature type make it a recognizable staple for enthusiasts of the game.
