Armored Ascension

Enchantment — Aura3 generic manaWhite mana

The aura that ties its payoff directly to your land count, scaling the buff with every Plains you control rather than offering a flat bonus. That makes it a mono-white reward card by construction: in a deck full of Plains it can turn a single creature into a finisher, while in a two- or three-color manabase the bonus shrinks to whatever fraction of your lands happen to be Plains. The flying it grants is the quieter half of the design, but it is what makes the math matter. A large ground creature that can be chump-blocked forever is a poor investment for four mana on an aura; one that connects in the air every turn while growing alongside your land drops turns a stalled board into a clock. The cost it never escapes is the cost every aura pays: commit it to a creature and you risk a two-for-one to any spot removal, with the land-scaled bonus making the loss sting more the deeper into the game you are. This is voltron-flavored aggression with a manabase tax built in, a card that asks you to give up color flexibility in exchange for a ceiling that climbs with your draws.
