Courtesy of Wizards of the Coast (WotC) and Eric Rodriguez, take a look at the founding Elder Dragon of the Prismari College in Strixhaven: School of Mages — Galazeth Prismari!
Flying
When Galazeth Prismari enters the battlefield, create a Treasure token.
The least expensive of Strixhaven‘s Elder Dragons previewed so far, Galazeth is a 3/4 flyer and nets you a free Treasure token upon entering the battlefield. While these abilities are solid and likely constructed playable, it’s Galazeth’s second ability that could make it stand out in multiple formats.
Artifacts you control have “T: Add a mana of any color. Spend this mana only to cast an instant or sorcery spell.”
If you like casting big spells, Galazeth is the right Elder Dragon for the job! There’s likely to be many Commander decks packed full of artifacts that have been waiting a long time for a leader like Galazeth. Cast a couple cheap artifacts on your early turns and follow them up with Galazeth and suddenly you’ve got a whole lot of mana at your disposal. Think of the possibilities!
So what do you think of Galazeth Prismari? Will it find a home in your next constructed deck? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
