Creature — Cat Soldier1 generic manaWhite mana

White has always paired its cheap fliers with a way to close, and this Cat Soldier folds both jobs into one common. Early, it is an evasive two-power body chipping in over a ground stall. Late, when extra lands have nowhere better to go, its five-mana pump turns a full board into a lethal turn: not a repeatable anthem engine, but a single decisive button you press once the alpha strike is on. The ordering is the point. The activation sits high enough that you never loop it every turn; it is a payoff you spend once, not an every-turn tax you build a deck around. What that buys is glue for the token-and-small-creatures side of white, sitting between the aggressive one-drops and whatever top-end the deck brings, giving the go-wide plan a mana sink that costs nothing to include and asks for no held-up trick or build-around commitment. It does not reinvent the pump-until-end-of-turn effect, and it was never meant to: the appeal is a flier that carries early tempo and still has something to do when the game runs long.
