Rationale
Alrund is a 5-mana legendary God who provides card advantage via scrying and foretell, while Hakka is a flicker-like value bird that bounces to hand when it attacks, scrys, then returns. The pair generates incremental blue tempo and card advantage, fitting control and midrange shells. The A- prefix indicates this is the Arena-rebalanced version, distinct from the paper Kaldheim version (which generated extra turns).
