Phantom Through the Pane
Defenestrated Phantom is a practical inclusion for any white midrange or control deck that values evasive pressure. The creature arrives as a 4 3 flyer for the cost shown and presents a secondary line of play through its disguise ability. You can deploy it early as a face down 2 2 with ward to hold ground and then flip it later for its full impact. Its printed stats and evasion make it a straightforward finisher against slower matchups while the disguise option helps you navigate removal heavy boards.
From a lore perspective the Phantom fits the Murders at Karlov Manor tone by embodying a presence that slips through high windows and fragile defenses. In practice use it to bait single target answers or as a surprise clock that forces opponents to spend resources inefficiently. The foil near mint exemplar shown here carries clean edges and a reflective finish that highlights the art without altering playability.
