Duskmantle Seer: Upkeep Arbiter
Duskmantle Seer is a compact threat that converts card advantage into a steady bleed. The creature comes with flying and a triggered upkeep ability that forces every player to reveal the top card of their library, lose life equal to that card's mana value, then put it into their hand. That sequence trims opponents while refilling your resources and creates predictable information for planning your next plays.
In practical decks the Seer excels where incremental advantage and card selection matter. It pairs with milling, discard, or life manipulation to amplify its impact. From a Ravnica angle the Seer reads like a Dimir operative who sifts fate and taxes the unwary. Use positioning and timing to turn each upkeep into a small but unavoidable tempo swing.
