Criatura legendaria — Dragón anciano
Vuela, vigilancia. Siempre que una criatura con la habilidad de defensor entre al campo de batalla bajo tu control, roba una carta. Cada criatura que controlas con la habilidad de defensor asigna una cantidad de daño de combate igual a su resistencia, en vez de su fuerza, y puede atacar como si no tuviera la habilidad de defensor.
Oracle text (EN)
Legendary Creature — Elder Dragon
Flying, vigilance Whenever a creature you control with defender enters, draw a card. Each creature you control with defender assigns combat damage equal to its toughness rather than its power and can attack as though it didn't have defender.

Rulings
-
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.
