Cruel Witness — Quietly Watching Your Stack
Cruel Witness
The card reads like a subtle investigator from Foundations Jumpstart lore. It watches from the canopy and nudges your top card toward answers or fuel each time you resolve an instant or sorcery. In practice Cruel Witness smooths late game draws, enables graveyard interactions, and chains well with cheap cantrips and draw spells. Add it to a deck that values incremental advantage and consistent access to the right answers. Pick one up if you play blue and want a low cost, repeatable surveil trigger that keeps your plays efficient.
