Bovine Intervention: Call the Ox
Bovine Intervention reads like a practical removal tool with a twist. Cast for {1}{W}, this Instant destroys a target artifact or creature and replaces it with a 2/2 white Ox token under its controller's control. It fits cleanly into a white toolbox, offering tempo and board presence in equal measure while keeping the threat of overcommitment low.
From an Outlaws of Thunder Junction angle the card nods to frontier justice in a plainspoken way. The flavor sits light on theatrics and heavy on payoff. Use it to answer fast threats, strip equipment from an aggressive build, or trade off a blocker while leaving the opponent with a modest threat they must then manage. Experienced players will appreciate the economy and the predictable token outcome when planning combat and removal sequencing.
