Vigilance Whenever Aragorn and Arwen enters or attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on each other creature you control. You gain 1 life for each other creature you control.
Predicted power
Standard Eng.NLUsr.
Pioneer Eng.NLUsr.
Modern 21 Eng.FUsr.

Unlike Solitude, this six-mana creature supplies neither immediate interaction nor cards; a board-dependent anthem is too slow for credible Modern adoption.

Band speculativeConfidence 72%

Could be wrong if An unshown efficient creature-token shell or mana-cheating package could make its repeatable attack trigger relevant.

Legacy 15 Eng.FUsr.

Six mana for a board-dependent combat effect is far below Legacy's efficiency bar, and its legendary status adds Karakas exposure.

Band speculativeConfidence 78%

Could be wrong if A new fast Selesnya swarm shell with unusually reliable acceleration could create a narrow home.

Pauper Eng.NLUsr.
Commander 42 Eng.D+Usr.

A repeatable team counter and lifegain payoff has a real go-wide home, but six mana, no token production, and no card advantage make it replaceable.

Could be wrong if Token density and access to haste/protection determine whether attacking once is realistic before removal.

Limited 73 Eng.B+Usr.

A 3/6 vigilance body that permanently grows an existing board and gains substantial life is a premium stabilizer, though weak when cast alone.

Best home Green-white go-wide decksBand premiumConfidence 45%

Could be wrong if Unknown speed, removal, and archetypes could make six mana or the need for other creatures substantially worse.

Go-wide combat payoff

“A slow Selesnya board payoff whose permanent team counters are strongest in creature-heavy Limited and multiplayer shells.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
