Baral's Expertise: Triple Bounce and a Free Play
Baral's Expertise is a practical choice for control players who want a compact answer that also fuels tempo. The sorcery clears up to three artifacts or creatures at once while setting you up to deploy another low cost threat or answer from hand without paying its mana cost. Use it to reset problematic boards, protect a combo piece, or chain a value play into an opponent turn where you need to regain initiative.
The card fits smoothly into blue shells that prize interaction and card advantage. In Commander games it often reads like a split tool because the bounce is efficient and the free cast scales with hand construction. Expect it to be most effective when your deck carries impactful spells with mana value four or less that change the state of the game when cast for free.
