Silent Chain, Deadly Follow Through
Chain Assassination is a compact removal tool that rewards timed aggression. This Uncommon instant from Universes Beyond Assassin's Creed costs {2}{B}{B} and reads like a focused answer to a single threat. Cast it after a skirmish or a flurry of trades to destroy a target creature and, if another creature has died this turn, draw a card. The card plays cleanly in sacrifice shells and midrange decks that force trades or create repeatable small casualties.
The printed Freerunning mechanic lets you recast Chain Assassination for {1}{B} if you dealt combat damage to a player this turn with an Assassin or commander. That interaction creates lines where you trade early creatures, hit an opponent, then use this instant for efficient tempo or card advantage. Use it to clear blockers, finish off a dangerous attacker, or convert a combat exchange into value. Add this Near Mint English copy to your collection and slot it into decks that maximize creature death triggers and tight removal sequencing.
