Vanguard cards can’t be included in a deck or brought into the game from outside the game.

2019-11-12wotc

Vanguard cards can be used only in a format that allows them (such as Limited events using the Mystery Booster set). Each player may begin the game with up to one vanguard card they own in the command zone. This card doesn’t count towards the minimum deck size.

A vanguard with a requirement can’t be your vanguard unless its requirement is met as the game begins.
