Stand United is the kind of reliable combat trick every green deck needs.
At 3 mana, it slots seamlessly into midrange and control builds, offering both surprise defense and turn-end tempo push.
In a game where each point of defense and offense can swing the score, Stand United gives you flexible options: shore up your front line or push your attackers over the top.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
Stand United reads:
Hidden (Hide now for {R} to react later for {0}.)
Action (Play on your turn or in showdowns.)
Buff a friendly unit. Buffs give an additional +1 |T to friendly units this turn. (To buff a unit, give it a +1 |T buff if it doesn’t already have one.)
Its dual nature—hidden reaction and active buff—makes Stand United a swiss-army knife in skirmishes.
On defense, you can hide it in response to an opponent’s spell or ability, springing it at zero cost to strengthen your blocker and grant an extra +1 |T buff to all buffed attackers.
Offensively, you pop it on your turn to push through crucial damage or force unfavorable trades. The stacking buff turns one unit’s buff into a teamwide threat for the turn, amplifying any aggressive pushes.
Visuals
The art on Stand United captures the spell’s dual defensive-offensive ethos. A lone figure stands within the ruined arches of an ancient hall, hands pressed in prayer or command.
Light spills through the broken ceiling, illuminating raindrops that fall like blessings. The figure’s silhouette suggests unwavering resolve—quiet strength before unleashing a unified strike.
Muted greens and grays dominate the palette, grounding the magic in Ionia’s natural mysticism without overshadowing the card’s battlefield purpose.
