Daring Saboteur (Commander: The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play

Slipstream Raider

Daring Saboteur is a compact evasive threat that fits cleanly into tempo and draw focused blue decks. At a cost of one and a blue, this Human Pirate comes into play as a 2 1 body that can be turned into a one turn unblockable attacker for two and a blue. The trigger that follows dealing combat damage converts a single successful swing into card selection. You draw then discard which feeds graveyard synergies and enables careful hand filtering while keeping pressure on opponents.

In Commander the card works as a recurring source of incremental advantage and a repeatable escape artist. It pairs well with cards that grant unblockable again and again or that benefit when creatures deal combat damage to players. There is a small touch of flavor in the art and text that places this saboteur in the Lost Caverns as a quick footed infiltrator who prefers a fast in and out over a prolonged fight.
