A’lan Musketeer: My Double-Shot Legend 🎯💥

Woohoo! I just added A’lan Musketeer to my deck and he’s already earning his keep. He’s a Legendary Foundations card, which means I can field him in both Frontier and Modern formats. That alone is huge for me because I’ve been bouncing between those two queues lately and I love cards that travel well across formats.

Why I grabbed him

Simple: Double Strike.
A’lan swings twice every round — two hits for the price (and mana) of one. In practice, he does the work of two monsters while occupying a single slot. Same mana cost, double throughput. That frees up an extra slot for me to plug in utility pieces like Cleanse, Armor Repair, Speed buff, or a sneaky finisher, which is exactly what I want when the mana cap is high and I’m trying to stack advantages across my lineup.

He’s also neutral, so I can drop him into whatever splinter I’m building that day. Flexibility = wins.

How Double Strike changes my lineup

Pressure from Turn 1. Two hits mean armor melts faster and low-HP backliners get deleted before they stabilize.

Tempo snowball. If he chips a unit down, my other damage dealers finish it right away with no wasted turns.

Kaylia synergy. When I’m running Kaylia Silverleaf (my go-to summoner lately), those execute follow-ups pair perfectly with A’lan’s Double Strike. Get an enemy low and the chain just pops. Double often feels like triple once the finisher procs. 😂

Frontier impact (and why I’m grinning)

I’ve been grinding Frontier a lot, and A’lan has been a quiet MVP there. Frontier rewards smart slot economy — you’re constantly trading one more body vs. one stronger body. A’lan says, “Why not both?” Two attacks from one slot lets me add a dedicated support piece elsewhere, which swings tight matches. More Frontier wins = more chances at fresh reward cards. That feedback loop is real.

When I deploy him

High-mana caps. He shines when I can afford a heavier backbone and still keep my damage online.

Armor stacks and sustain teams. Two quick hits bust through armor and deny slow heal turns.

Rulesets that reward focus fire. If the table favors fast deletes, A’lan accelerates the first kill so the fight tilts early.

(And yes, as a Foundations card he’s not rentable, so owning him is the way to go. All the more reason I’m glad he’s in-house.)

Value check

Right now he’s valued around $4.22 — which is wild for the impact he brings to my queues. I’ve bought single-purpose cards for more that didn’t move my win rate like this one did.

Mini battle notes

Dropping A’lan next to a steady ranged or magic backline lets me chain finishers reliably.

Because he covers so much damage by himself, I can squeeze in an extra tank, cleanse, or speed piece without sacrificing kill pressure.

The best part? Watching the replay as that second strike lands and the scoreboard momentum flips. Chef’s kiss.

Final thoughts

A’lan Musketeer fits my deck like he was custom-built for it: format-flexible, slot-efficient, and tempo-positive. He’s already boosted my Frontier results, and by extension my reward card odds. If your lineup wants more damage without giving up utility, this legendary is a no-brainer. Two shots every turn, one cozy slot, and a lot more W’s on the results screen. 🐉⚔️
