Pickpocket with a Plan
Audacious Thief is a compact piece of black tempo that pays you back for pushing the attack. Audacious Thief pairs a modest 2 2 body with a repeatable trigger that draws you a card each time it attacks while taking one life. That exchange fits neatly into aggressive and sacrifice style black decks where incremental advantage and small life payments are part of the plan.
Use Audacious Thief as an early attacker to dig for answers or as a recurring source of card advantage when you can protect it with evasive creatures or removal backup. The design is straightforward; the play reads quickly on the battlefield. Add this Near Mint English Foundations Jumpstart printing to your collection to shore up opening turns and to smooth draws in tight spots. Pick one up and start attacking to turn tempo into card fuel.
