Haytham Kenway, Order's Edge
Haytham Kenway plays like a control finisher with a knightly twist. At a casting cost of {2}{W}{U} you get a 3/3 Legendary Creature that shuts down assassin style tactics with Protection from Assassins while bolstering your board. His static aura pumps your other Knights by +2/+2 and grants them the same protection which turns a small Knight token into a meaningful threat and forces opponents to answer a growing, guarded army rather than single pickoffs.
The enter the battlefield trigger reads like a selective exile sweep. For each opponent you may exile up to one target creature that player controls until Haytham Kenway leaves the battlefield. That makes him both a tempo swing and a piece of long form interaction against creature heavy decks. Use him where tempo and board immunity matter and he will convert narrow answers into decisive advantage.
