Deadeye Duelist: Quick Draw from Thunder Junction

Deadeye Duelist is a compact threat that belongs in any red aggro or tempo build from Outlaws of Thunder Junction. At a cost of {1}{R} you get a 1/3 Human Assassin with Reach and a built in ping ability. The activated ability costs 1 and tapping this creature to deal 1 damage to target opponent, which makes it a persistent source of incremental reach against life totals and a reliable answer to chump blockers or planeswalkers that venture too close.

From a lore angle this card fits the gunfighter archetype of the set. The art shows a marksman who blends practical trick shots with battlefield presence, which explains the unusual 1/3 body for a one drop. Expect this card to earn its keep by trading up in combat and by steadily pressuring opponents while you set up larger plays.
