Cori Mountain Stalwart TDM 0175 · uncommon

Take it when

Build a wide board through inexpensive creatures and tokens, then use creature-count discounts, removal and second-spell damage to maintain attacks.

What to take next

Frontline Rush adds two bodies, improving Coordinated Maneuver and reducing Packbeast. A discounted Packbeast can be the second spell that triggers Stalwart.

Wrong pick

Mobilize bodies expire at the end step; use their body count while they exist. Ordinary Frontline Rush tokens remain and do not enter already attacking.

Mana & splash

Keep the colored sources needed for early spells. A synergy payoff does not automatically justify a splash.

Interactions from the card text, not a ranking.

Frontline RushTwo tokens add to a wide board; the other mode turns body count into a combat boost. Decide from the board rather than assuming the pump mode always ends the game.

Underfoot UnderdogsTwo bodies support wide-board rewards. Its ability can make a small attacker unblockable, but tapping the Underdogs costs an attacker or blocker.

Coordinated ManeuverIts creature-damage mode counts all creatures you control on resolution. Cast while mobilize tokens are still present for a larger hit, or use the enchantment answer when needed.

One-pick Draft

A second spell deals two to each opponent and gains two life. Cheap creatures and discounted Packbeasts keep that reward attached to useful board development.
