Agrus Kos Answers the Call
Agrus Kos, Spirit of Justice is a compact enforcement engine built for combat and adjudication. The card pairs double strike and vigilance to pressure life totals while leaving attackers untapped for blocks. Its triggered ability reads like a procedural checklist. When Agrus Kos enters the battlefield or attacks, you choose up to one target creature. If it is suspected, exile it. Otherwise, suspect it. That interaction creates a consistent removal threat in decks that can mark opponents or otherwise apply the suspect condition.
Play Agrus Kos in a midrange shell that benefits from combat advantage and targeted disruption. The creature rewards precise sequencing. Equipments and anthem effects amplify value from double strike. The exile clause bypasses indestructible and regenerating defenses while the suspect mechanic opens room for synergy with graveyard and investigation themes in Karlov Manor. From a lore perspective Agrus Kos fits the set as a resolute investigator who enforces verdicts with measured force rather than spectacle.
