Fresh-Faced Recruit (Ravnica Remastered) Near Mint

Step Forward, Strike First

Fresh-Faced Recruit brings efficient pressure to an aggressive deck and slots neatly into Boros lists that value tempo. Fresh-Faced Recruit is a 2/1 Human Soldier for {1}{R}. The printed ability grants first strike on your turn only which turns favorable blocks into clean trades and forces opponents to adjust how they block. Use it to punish slow starts and to protect more valuable attackers behind it.

On Ravnica the city gates are training grounds and this recruit represents that doctrine. The card text is straightforward and predictable which makes planning turns easier. Play it on turn two, hold back to block, or push damage when the timing fits. Fresh-Faced Recruit is a common that rewards precise sequencing and reads well in both limited and budget constructed lists.
