Discerning Peddler: Streetwise Card Sifter
Discerning Peddler is a compact engine for red decks that want subtle card selection. The 2 2 Human Rogue comes down for {1}{R} and immediately gives you a chance to trade an unwanted card for a new draw. That exchange is clean and reliable. In midgame sequences you can pitch a situational spell to filter into something more useful. In aggressive builds the body matters while the optional discard can dig for burn or a key piece.
Play it when you need incremental advantage without committing additional mana. The ability to discard then draw fits well with graveyard synergies and looting effects common to Outlaws of Thunder Junction. The card reads exactly as printed and slots into both tempo and value roles. Experienced players will appreciate the timing options and how this Peddler rewards tight sequencing.
