Mox strategy

Aethertide Whale is a 6/4 flying creature that generates six energy counters on entering, allowing you to pay four energy to bounce it back to your hand. Its primary strength lies in its size and evasion combined with energy resource generation. Best used in energy-focused decks where you can reuse the Whale repeatedly for value or enable energy payoffs. Synergizes well with energy payoff cards like Harnessed Lightning or cards that benefit from bouncing creatures like Flickerwisp or cards with enters-the-battlefield effects. It supports gameplay mechanics around energy and tempo, enabling repeated threat deployment and resource management for controlling the board or pressuring opponents.
