Shadowproof Saboteur
Clandestine Meddler is a compact and tactical addition for any black aggro or subtle control shell. At a modest cost of {2}{B} it arrives as a 3 2 Vampire Rogue and immediately lets you suspect one other creature you control. Suspected creatures gain menace and lose the ability to block which creates pressure on defense and opens consistent attack windows without committing extra resources.
The card rewards attack timing. Whenever one or more suspected creatures you control attack you surveil 1. That interaction lets you sculpt your next draws while advancing both board presence and graveyard setup. In play it functions as a tempo piece and a value engine that pairs well with sacrifice synergies and graveyard recursion. Experienced players will appreciate how it shifts combat math in tight spots while contributing incremental card advantage.
