Territorial Roc

Three toughness on a two-drop flier is the whole design: a body that survives the cheap burn aimed at one-toughness threats, walls a 2/2 attacker in the air without trading down, and gums up an opponent's early skies without demanding anything in return. One power means it does not pressure anyone on its own, and it loses cleanly to a 3/2 or 3/3 rather than stopping it, but trading up was never the assignment. This is the defensive anchor of white's air: the card that holds the sky while heavier ground threats do the closing, then turns sideways to chip in once the board tilts in your favor. It is the unglamorous floor that lets the splashier three- and four-drop fliers above it operate, the common-rarity statline (low power, sturdy toughness, evasion) designers reach for whenever white's skies want a durable early presence that does not warp anything by itself. The Roc fills that role precisely, and asks to be nothing more.
