Betrayal at the Vault — A Cutthroat Exchange
Betrayal at the Vault is a tactical instant that rewards careful board reading. Cast it at instant speed to have one of your creatures redirect damage equal to its power to two enemy creatures. This card fits into green midrange shells that value big bodies and efficient removal by proxy. The printed wording is straightforward and reliable in multiplayer and one on one matches. The foil treatment catches light in play and signals intent to opponents without changing the mechanical role the card fills.
In Outlaws of Thunder Junction this uncommon leans on the set theme of fragile alliances and opportunistic strikes. Use it to finish off multiple small blockers, to trade favorably in combat, or to turn a large attacker into a twofer when opposing threats line up. The card works well with pump effects and damage redirect synergies. The included flavor text hints at the set story where greed and shifting loyalties decide outcomes more often than brute force.
