Expose the Culprit — Reveal and Reclaim
Expose the Culprit is a compact toolkit for black-based players who rely on disguise and surprise. For {1}{B} as an instant you gain two distinct options. You can flip a face down creature face up to identify a threat or a hidden value. Alternatively you can exile any number of your face up creatures with disguise into a face down pile, shuffle that pile, then cloak them back into play. Both modes offer interaction with the face down mechanic while preserving board presence.
Use this card to disrupt opponent plans or to protect your disguised creatures before a mass removal spell resolves. In limited play it provides clean answers to Faceless Menace style lines. In constructed play it finds a role in decks that abuse disguise for value and reuse. The Showcase foil finish and the Near Mint condition make this a collectible play or a practical sideboard inclusion depending on your meta.
