Character Background

Garnet, Princess of Alexandria reads as a small but sticky midrange/value piece: a 2/2 lifelink for GW that grows on attack by stripping lore counters off your Sagas to become a larger threat and stabilize life totals. Thematically it represents a cleric who trades storylines for immediate power, so avoid inventing plot details and treat the saga interaction as a resource-conversion engine. Best used in a value/midrange deck that runs cheap Sagas and ways to recur or reuse them: include multiple one- or two-mana Sagas and cards that recur enchantments or proliferate to refill counters, and consider Doubling Season or Primal Vigor to amplify the +1/+1 counters Garnet receives. Also pairs well with lifegain synergies like Ajani's Pridemate or cards that reward creature growth. In play, attack as often as safe to convert stalled Sagas into a snowballing threat — you’ll trade long-term saga value for immediate board presence and tempo.
