Slip Back, Stand Ready
Ghostway is the kind of practical clutch play players reach for when combat math is unforgiving. Casting Ghostway for {2}{W} exiles each creature you control and returns them at the beginning of the next end step. That timing protects your board from a sweeper or removes targeted removal while leaving your permanents untouched long enough to dodge triggers or unfavorable combat. In Ravnica play Ghostway reads like a guild tactic that resets the board without rewriting your plan.
As a staple Instant Ghostway sits well in blink and control shells. It interacts cleanly with enter the battlefield effects and preserves your creatures from mass removal or targeted exile. The Retro Frame art and foil finish here echo the card's spectral theme and make the play feel deliberate rather than accidental. Keep this near mint foil in a main deck or sideboard and you have a reliable answer that preserves tempo and buys you an extra angle of attack.
