Boltbender — Redirect the Spark
Boltbender is a compact red tool for tempo and misdirection. At four mana it enters the table as a 4 2 Goblin Wizard that doubles as a face down threat via disguise. Flip it to take control of the battlefield narrative by reassigning targets for spells and abilities you control. That ability converts incidental damage into intentional advantage and pairs well with mass burn and targeted removal.
Play it in any caster deck that appreciates flexible interaction and surprise value. The card rewards timing and sequencing. Use it to pivot combat, protect a lethal plan or avoid a counter by changing targets after players commit. The flavor fits Karlov Manor with a sly, practical twist on theatrical deception rather than outright spectacle.
