Character Background
Valkyrie's Call reads like a battlefield midwife: thematically it evokes a valkyrie snatching fallen warriors from the grave and raising them as winged revenants, and mechanically it best supports a value/attrition or midrange game plan that leans into resilient threats rather than pure aggro or combo. It shines in decks built around high-impact creatures with strong enter-the-battlefield or death triggers—sacrifice a creature into an Altar of Dementia or a blasphemous outlet, get its dying triggers, then have it return bigger, with flying and a +1/+1 counter so your threats stick around. Deckbuilding tip: maximize non-Angel, non-token permanents with one-shot value (Stoneforge-style tutors, ETB removal bodies, Sun Titan-esque recursion targets) and include artifact sac outlets to abuse repeatable sacrifice while remembering Valkyrie's Call only recurs a creature once because it becomes an Angel; also beware exile and token strategies, which this enchantment simply can’t save.
