Legendary Creature — Horse
Horses you control have haste. (They can attack and {T} as soon as they come under your control.) Whenever Shadowfax attacks, you may put a creature card with lesser power from your hand onto the battlefield tapped and attacking.
“Haste horses that cheat smaller creatures onto the battlefield whenever you attack.”
Shadowfax is your ticket to a fast, aggressive horse-themed deck that turns small creatures into a growing army. The core idea is simple: Shadowfax and your other horses get haste, letting you attack immediately, and every time Shadowfax swings, you can cheat weaker creatures directly onto the battlefield already attacking. This creates a snowball effect where your board grows larger each turn while dealing damage.
Your gameplan revolves around filling your hand with low-power creatures—tokens, small utility creatures, or other horses—that you can flash in for free whenever Shadowfax hits. You'll want to load up on token generators and small efficient creatures to maximize what you can put into play. Once you've assembled a decent board, you're just swinging in for the kill with an ever-expanding army of hasty attackers.

Skip expensive tutors and fancy mana rocks; lean on cheap token makers like Sacred Foundry, Boros Charm, and Impact Tremors to fill your hand and trigger Shadowfax's ability without breaking the bank.
