Slip Into the Fold
Become Anonymous lets you tuck a creature out of harm's way while turning the top of your library into a hidden battalion. Cast for {2}{U}{U}, this instant from Universes Beyond Assassin's Creed trades immediate board presence for a disguised return. You exile a nontoken creature you own and the top two cards of your library in a face down pile, shuffle that pile, then cloak those cards so they return to the battlefield tapped. That sequence creates a window to protect key creatures from removal and to reset triggers that care about entering the battlefield.
The foil etched treatment gives the card a subdued sheen that matches the set tone while the wording rewards players who think in setup and timing. Use Become Anonymous as a tempo pivot or a safety valve for combo pieces. It reads cleanly in a control shell and scales into midrange lists that profit from delayed, tapped reentries. Evaluate the targets and timing the way you would a blink effect but expect the entrance to resolve as a tactical redeployment rather than an immediate attack. Add this to decks that value recursion, enter the battlefield synergies, and careful interaction.
