Slip into the Fold
Become Anonymous is a tight blue instant that maps directly to Assassin intuition. For {2}{U}{U} you exile a nontoken creature you own and the top two cards of your library into a shuffled face down pile, then cloak those cards so they enter the battlefield tapped. The interaction reads like a tempo play and a value shield at once. You trade a visible threat for two mystery bodies that behave as 2/2s with ward 2 until you choose to invest mana to turn them face up if they are creatures.
In practice this card supports blink style lines and toolbox plans. Use it to dodge removal, bait blockers, or reset a creature with enter the battlefield text while also potentially refilling your board presence. The Assassin's Creed art leans into hidden identities which pairs with cloak mechanics and tempo play; experienced players will see where this fits in control shells and blink combos. Add this Light Play foil to a blue deck that wants insurance and surprise threats on demand.
