Gravework Gambit
Forsaken Miner brings a concise threat that fuels graveyard recursion for crime oriented decks. The 1 black mana creature cannot block so it sits in the forward lines as a tempo piece that you expect to cycle through the bin and back again. Its ability triggers when you commit a crime and offers a clean payment option to return the Miner from your graveyard to the battlefield, which fits neatly into aggressive rogue builds and sacrifice engines.
Play it as a recurring value engine rather than a blocker. The card rewards disciplined sequencing and timing with crimes to maximize battlefield presence. In lore terms the Miner is a restless opportunist, drawn back to the fight whenever the outlaw code is broken. For practical play this card is compact, repeatable, and predictable, making it easy to slot into decks that leverage graveyard interaction and crime mechanics.
