Enduring Vitality (Japan Showcase, Fracture Foil) $156.61 Just like Enduring Tenacity before it, Vitality returns to the battlefield the first time it dies

Or, you know, you could splash out $20 and grab yourself Gisela, the Broken Blade, who costs one more mana, nearly doubles the Thunder Bird's stats, is a legendary, and has Lifelink while also being a flying creature with first strike

Since you can make a copy at instant speed, you can ramp by copying a Sol Ring or an Arcane Signet to have enough mana for an instant spell that can counter an opponents spell or destruction spell targeting a creature

Free discard outlets like Putrid Imp or red cards like Faithless Looting can also be used to enable reanimation

If a card that isn't a transforming double-faced card is a copy of Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch, it won't return to the battlefield when it dies
