Mind's Edge Duelist
Duelist of the Mind is a compact threat that rewards careful draw sequencing. The card pairs flying and vigilance with a variable power that mirrors your card draw that turn. Play it early for evasive pressure or later as the payoff for a hand full of card advantage; either way it changes how opponents block and when they respond.
Its crime trigger slots neatly into decks that trade off card selection for tempo. Commit a crime, and you may replace the new card by discarding one you do not need. That choice keeps the card advantage tidy and preserves the creature as a repeatable threat. The foil extended art shown here is near mint and presents the character and art treatments prominently, which collectors and players will appreciate when sleeving for play or display.
