Golden Guardian // Gold-Forge Garrison

Description

Golden Guardian // Gold-Forge Garrison is a rare double-faced card from Rivals of Ixalan that is an artifact creature on the front and a land on the back. The front side is a 4/4 artifact Golem with Defender and an activated ability to fight another creature you control and a delayed return-to-play clause if it dies that turn, and the back side taps for two mana of one color or can be tapped with a cost to make a 4/4 Golem token. The card supports strategies that want a defensive blocker that can transform into a powerful mana-producing land or generate additional golem tokens for board presence.
