Quick Hands, Quiet Payoff
Blade Juggler from Ravnica Remastered is a compact piece of value that fits cleanly into aggressive or sacrifice focused black builds. Blade Juggler rewards damage on the stack by letting you cast it for its Spectacle cost of {2}{B} rather than {4}{B}. The entry trigger deals one to you and replaces itself with a card, so the play both chips at life totals and advances your plan in a single motion.
This Human Rogue is straightforward to evaluate at three power and two toughness. It pairs well with direct damage, ping loops, or pressure that makes Spectacle reliable. In limited play it provides tempo and card advantage; in constructed shells the card is a low friction source of filtering that can be turned into incremental advantage over multiple turns.
