Thassa's Draw and Command
Bident of Thassa rewards a commander style that pressures life totals while smoothing your hand. The first ability turns each successful strike by your attackers into card advantage. Cast it early and each point of combat damage that passes through can replace itself, which helps maintain tempo and fuels a midgame plan without taxing your mana too much. The second ability forces opponents to attack which can collapse their board coordination and open favorable blocks for you.
Use this card where creatures are expected to connect with players rather than be removal fodder. It pairs well with evasive creatures and ways to create extra combat steps because each instance of player damage is a potential draw. The art and name fit Lost Caverns of Ixalan by leaning into sea authority without flashy flair. Practical and predictable, it shifts the flow of combat in subtle ways an experienced player can exploit.
