Angelic Benediction

Enchantment3 generic manaWhite mana

Exalted rewards restraint: send one creature in alone and the rest of the team triggers from the bench, each source firing its own +1/+1 until end of turn. Most exalted sources stop at the buff and ask the lone attacker to survive on its own merits. This one bolts a tapper effect to the same trigger: every time a creature attacks alone, you may tap a target creature, so the pump and the path to connect both arrive from a single permanent. That bundling matters because the weakness of solo-attacker strategies is the gang block; one swollen attacker is easy to wall with two small bodies. Tapping a potential defender on declaration converts a stalled board into a clean hit, and because the tap targets any creature, it doubles as a way to neutralize a key blocker before combat math even begins. The attack-alone condition is what keeps the engine honest: commit a second creature to the swing and the whole thing goes dark, no buff, no tap. The result is a card that asks you to win with width by playing narrow, deploying a full board but sending one creature at a time, trusting repeatable tap-on-a-swing to grind the defense open turn after turn.
