Barbed Servitor: Tough Tradeoffs, Silent Payoff
This Near Mint Foil extended art from Murders at Karlov Manor gives you an indestructible construct that rewards bold attacks. Barbed Servitor arrives with suspect it and flips the usual card advantage script. When it connects in combat you draw a card and lose one life. The exchange is tidy and repeatable which makes this a straightforward engine in attrition builds and graveyard strategies.
Damage to the Servitor yields immediate damage back at an opponent equal to the damage dealt. That triggers a different axis of pressure than most 1 over 1 creatures and pairs well with direct damage tricks and removal bait. If you like tight, efficient threats that create incremental advantage and a touch of Karlov Manor lore, this Servitor fits into control shells and value oriented aggro lists alike.
