Genku, Future Shaper
Genku, Future Shaper is a legendary Moonfolk Wizard that leans into blue white control tempo. In Modern Horizons 3 this two color legend costs {2}{W}{U} and rewards careful sequencing by reshaping the battlefield whenever a nontoken permanent you control leaves the battlefield. Choose one option that hasn’t been picked this turn and create a creature token with those characteristics, giving you immediate board presence through a 2/2 white Fox with vigilance, a 1/2 blue Moonfolk with flying, or a 1/1 black Rat with lifelink. This Light Play copy carries the polish you expect from a rare piece with a hint of wear that comes with hands-on play.
On top of its token-generator trigger Genku backs up a finisher capacity with a flexible pump. For 3WU you can put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control, enabling a quick ramp in board state as you tempo into the late game. The card rewards planning and pairing with token synergies, letting you trade removal into value and grow a resilient board through incremental upgrades. In the lore of the set Genku is a time shaping presence whose actions bend outcomes across the battlefield.
