Play Dead, Get Rich
Fake Your Own Death is a compact instant that pulls double duty in combat and combo turns. For {1}{B} you give a creature +2/+0 until end of turn and grant it a death trigger that brings it back tapped under its owner's control and creates a Treasure token. The effect reads cleanly and slots into sacrifice or aristocrat decks as a combat trick or a value engine starter while keeping your lines simple and playable.
This Near Mint Foil from Outlaws of Thunder Junction fits into margin plays where tempo and incremental value matter. Use it to push through damage, bait removal, or recur a key creature for another enter the battlefield interaction while gaining a mana source. The foil treatment makes it a nice table piece and the common rarity keeps it easy to slot into decks without overcomplicating the mana curve.
