Boreal Outrider, Snow creature — elf warrior, designed by Alex Konstad first released in Jan, 2021 in the set Kaldheim. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
A deck that focuses on casting a variety of snow creatures would benefit from including Boreal Outrider, as it can help boost the power of creatures entering the battlefield. While there may be more powerful snow creature synergies available, such as Ice-Fang Coatl for card advantage or Dead of Winter for board control, Boreal Outrider can still be a valuable addition to a snow-themed deck, especially if the strategy revolves around casting multiple creatures quickly to overwhelm the opponent.

If you control multiple Boreal Outriders, each of their triggered abilities will trigger separately. A creature could enter the battlefield with multiple +1/+1 counters on it this way, even if you spent only a single snow mana of the appropriate color(s) to cast the creature spell.

Some cards have additional effects for each spent to cast them. You can cast these spells even if you don’t spend any snow mana to cast them; their additional effects simply won’t do anything.

The symbol is a generic mana symbol. It represents a cost that can be paid by one mana that was produced by a snow source. That mana can be any color or colorless.

Unlike effects that care only whether or not you spent snow mana to cast a spell, Boreal Outrider cares about the color of that snow mana. It doesn’t matter which part of the total cost to cast the creature spell the snow mana was spent on, only that the spent snow mana matches one of the creature spell’s colors. For example, if a red creature spell has an additional cost to cast it and you spend red mana from a snow source to pay that cost, Boreal Outrider’s ability will trigger.
