The diverse factions of woodland animals in MTG Bloomburrow may seem adorable, but a significant number of these creatures are skilled and deadly fighters.
Although Bloomburrow has many charming Bird Creatures, its main Commander, Kastral, the Windcrested, possesses brutal combat skills that allow it to soar and diminish your opponents’ life points.
Kastral is a 4/5 Legendary Bird Scout with a Flying ability and impressive 4/5 stats. It’s not uncommon for the most renowned Commanders in Azorius colors to possess the Flying ability, making it unsurprising that this Bloomburrow Bird also has this elusive trait.
Kastral, the Windcrested stands out as the top choice for MTG Commanders in Bird decks, surpassing previous options like Gwaihir the Windlord, thanks to its impressive combat abilities.
The popular choice for a Bird color identity in MTG is typically Azorius, providing the ability to enhance a Kastral deck with assistance from sets beyond its initial release.
Kastral offers a variety of options for its controller to utilize. These options can be activated whenever one or more Bird Creatures under your control deal combat damage to another player. These abilities range from drawing a card to strengthening your board by placing a +1/+1 counter on each Bird you command.
The Windcrested’s Kastral ability is one of the more ruthless options available, enabling you to place a Bird card from your graveyard or hand directly onto the battlefield. Although this offers a significant advantage without requiring mana, the chosen card will have a finality counter attached to it.
When the card with a finality counter on it is removed from the field, it is exiled, making it extremely challenging to bring back into the game without the use of specific MTG abilities.
Utilizing Kastral’s abilities at the most opportune moment, players of MTG can effortlessly surpass their opponents’ defenses with a multitude of formidable Birds, swiftly securing victory in a matter of turns.
