Chord of Calling: Precision Recruitment
Chord of Calling gives you a surgical way to change the board state. Cast it for {X}{G}{G}{G} and use Convoke to tap creatures so they chip in as mana while you search your deck for a creature with mana value X or less and put it straight onto the battlefield. In practice the card rewards careful sequencing; announce targets, decide how many creatures to tap, and leave open interaction windows for instant speed responses.
In Ravnica terms this is the council calling reinforcements in the middle of a skirmish. The foil treatment and Light Play condition make this copy attractive to collectors and players who expect to deploy big threats through convoke or to cheat creatures into play after a board wipe. Experienced pilots will note how X scales with available convoke resources and how Chord can pivot between combo lines and tempo plays.
