pre order pokemon 151 booster box TCG Scarlet & Violet 3.5 Pokemon Bundle : Toys & Games and witness a brand Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet-151

A 5/5 for five with two keywords and protection is already a decent rate

Optional animated card effect

Tadeas, Juniper Ascendant / Dhalsim, Pliable Pacifist Tadeas, Juniper Ascendant is the Universe Within version of Street Fighters Dhalsim, Pliable Pacifist

Mid- and late games is where this theme really shines

As a 5/5 with flying and first strike (for only five mana, no less), this creature is able to kill Sheoldred, the Apocalypse as a blocker in one-on-one combat, which is already a positive trade-off for this creature as a blocker

There are plenty of ways to achieve this, but for my money all pale in comparison to Embercleave
