Ezio, Leap of Faith
Ezio, Brash Novice slots into white aggro and tempo shells as a compact, repeatable threat. For a modest cost of {1}{W} you get a Legendary Creature that grows each time it attacks, turning incremental pressure into real board impact. The attack trigger puts a +1/+1 counter on Ezio so the clock speeds up; once he reaches two counters he gains first strike and the Assassin creature type which matters for tribal synergies and removal interactions.
From a gameplay angle Ezio functions as a resilient one drop that demands answers. He trades well early and then punches above his weight once counters accumulate. The flavor mirrors a young Initiate learning to exploit openings more than raw force. If you build him into token decks, equipment builds or a creature based value plan he becomes more than a one trick; he is a recurring threat that closes games. Pick up this Near Mint copy to add a low cost, high upside curve piece to white aggressive and archetypal combo lists.
