Creature — Giant
LegalRank #282
Whenever this creature enters or attacks, you may return target permanent card with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield.
6/6
KeywordsVigilance
Why is this card good?
Sun Titan is one of white's premier value engines, and the recursion is what makes it shine. A 6/6 vigilance body is fine, but recurring a permanent every time it enters or attacks generates relentless card advantage that grinds opponents out.
The mana value 3 restriction is broad in practice — it hits Solemn Simulacrum, Mind Stone, Skullclamp, removal-on-a-stick like Banisher Priest, and most aristocrats fodder (Blood Artist, Sakura-Tribe Elder, Viscera Seer). It loves cheap permanents that sacrifice or die, so it's outstanding in aristocrats, blink/value, and stax decks that recur taxing pieces like Smothering Tithe-adjacent rocks or Gideon's Sword-type lockpieces.
Best with sacrifice outlets and blink effects (Ephemerate, Conjurer's Closet) to abuse the ETB repeatedly, and with a loaded graveyard.
Skip it in decks built around high-cost permanents, spellslinger lists, or aggressive low-curve token strategies where a clunky six-drop doesn't earn its slot. You need cheap targets to feed it — otherwise it's just a vanilla beater.
