Encampment Keeper⁣ - Ixalan⁣ (Common)⁣ [11]

Encampment Keeper is a 1/1 Dog creature with first strike, meaning it can deal damage before creatures without first strike during combat, making it a decent early game blocker or attacker. The ability to pump your creatures for a turn by spending seven mana and sacrificing it can be a game-changer, especially in a creature-heavy deck, providing a surprise power boost in a crucial moment. However, its low toughness means it can be easily removed by combat or spells, and the high mana cost for its ability makes it less reliable if you’re looking for immediate impact.
