飞行，警戒每当一个具守军异能的生物在你的操控下进战场时，抓一张牌。每个由你操控且具守军异能的生物皆依照其防御力来分配战斗伤害，而不是依照力量；且能视同不具守军异能地进行攻击。

(3/19/2021)
Arcades's last ability doesn't actually change any creature's power. It changes only the amount of combat damage it assigns. All other rules and effects that check power or toughness use the real values. For example, Rabid Bite won't cause a creature with defender to deal damage equal to its toughness.

If Arcades leaves the battlefield after a creature with defender has attacked, that creature remains an attacking creature, although it will assign damage equal to its power.
