Call a Surprise Witness — Ready the Fallen Call a Surprise Witness is a compact resurrection play that fits cleanly into white decks that value incremental tempo. Casting for {1}{W}, it returns a creature card with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield and places a flying counter on it. The card rewards precise sequencing and hand management since reanimating a small threat with evasion can flip combat math or shore up defense against an airborne attacker.
In the context of Murders at Karlov Manor the spell reads like a performed contract from the Orzhov ledger. The returned creature becomes a Spirit in addition to its other types which interacts predictably with tribal synergies and sacrifice outlets. Use it as a surprise blocker, an evasive attacker that chips in damage, or fuel for enter the battlefield triggers that care about creatures entering under your control.
