Blessing of Belzenlok
A combat trick built to reward a deck that loads up on legendary creatures, with the bonus folded into a clean condition rather than a separate slot. The +2/+1 is generic pump available to anything, the kind of cheap instant-speed boost that ambushes a blocker or pushes the last points through; the lifelink rider is the whole reason it exists, a payoff that only pays out when the target carries the legendary supertype. That split is the smart part of the design: the base mode keeps the card from being a dead draw in any black deck, while the conditional clause gives a legend-heavy build a reason to run it over a stronger generic trick. The lifelink swing matters most in a race, where stabilizing on the same turn you connect can flip a math problem that pump alone would not solve. It belongs to a small group of effects that try to make the legend supertype a deckbuilding axis worth building toward rather than an incidental keyword, asking you to treat your legendary creatures as a cohesive resource. The ceiling is modest by design, but the card knows exactly which deck it is for and prices its best line accordingly.
