Coveted Falcon: Perch and Plot
The Coveted Falcon fits neatly into tempo and control shells. At three mana with two blue pips this Artifact Creature Bird offers flying and an attack trigger that lets you seize a permanent you own but do not control. Use that ability to hijack key pieces of your board or to reset a problematic aura before it becomes dangerous again. The printed Disguise cost gives you the option to present it face down and then flip for a different effect, which rewards timing and patience in a tight board state.
When the Falcon is turned face up the card trades permanents with an opponent and replaces each transfer with card draw. That exchange can swing resource math in your favor if you pressure the right targets. This is a card for pilots who track tempo and favor incremental advantage rather than flashy combos. Familiarity with attack step and ownership rules pays dividends when you pilot this into Murders at Karlov Manor lists.
