Turn 6: He cast Guide’s Echo again, this time targeting his Crackling Drake (power = 8). The token copy was a 1/1 Drake with the sacrifice-trigger. He swung with the real Drake (unblockable from previous turn) for 8. Then he swung with the token. It dealt 1—and he sacrificed it, granting unblockable to… the real Drake again. make creature unblockable mtg
Its text read: “Tunnel-Guide can’t be blocked. When Tunnel-Guide deals combat damage to a player, you may sacrifice it. If you do, target creature you control gains ‘This creature can’t be blocked’ until end of turn.” Kaelen smiled

Because in Magic, the scariest creature isn’t the one with trample. It’s the one that you can’t even see coming.” The token copy was a 1/1 Drake with the sacrifice-trigger
Turn 4: Kaelen cast Slick Tunnel-Guide . It swung in, unblockable, dealing 1 damage. He sacrificed it, and granted “unblockable” to his Frost Lynx (a measly 2/2). The Lynx hit for 2, did nothing special.
But the seed was planted.
