Blade Juggler: Trade Blood for Card Advantage
Blade Juggler is a compact value engine for midrange and control decks that welcome a marginal life payment in exchange for card advantage. Castable for {4}{B} or cheaper through its Spectacle cost, Blade Juggler arrives as a 3/2 Human Rogue that immediately trades one point of your life for a card. The body is serviceable in combat and the one point ping can trigger damage synergies or help meet Spectacle conditions from your own aggressive plays.
In Ravnica Remastered the card reads like a sly guild operative. Use it after you have pushed damage through or alongside sacrifice and life manipulation effects to turn that one damage into a steady resource. Blade Juggler slots into decks that want low cost interaction and incremental advantage while fitting the set flavor of cunning street operatives and quick, efficient threats.
