Character Background
Paladin Danse, Steel Maverick is a compact two-mana 3/3 vigilance lifelink that doubles as a board-saving trick: exile it to give all your artifact and Human creatures indestructible until end of turn. That combination makes the card ideal for aggressive-midrange or value-oriented tribal strategies that want to both apply pressure and survive sweepers—early it’s a threatening attacker with life gain, late it’s a refund-free stopgap that turns a losing board into a stable one. Deckbuilding tip: populate the list with cheap Humans and artifact token generators (Servos/Thopters, weapons or small constructs) and pair with anthem effects or light equipment to maximize pre-exile damage. A specific synergy is including flicker or reanimation engines that can rebuild tempo after you exile the paladin, or redundancy in threats so the exile is insurance rather than all-in. Play it as tempo early, insurance late.
