Master the Art of Hostile Negotiations

Prepare to outwit your opponents with Hostile Negotiations, a cunning instant that puts the power of choice into your hands—while also putting your adversaries in a bind. For just three mana, you can exile the top three cards of your library, then put them against three more, presenting your opponent with a tough decision. Will they pick the pile that benefits you the most? This card embodies strategic gameplay, allowing you to manipulate the flow of the game while dealing damage to your opponent's life total.

In the spirit of The Brothers' War, Hostile Negotiations not only showcases the tension between choice and consequence but also synergizes beautifully with cards that exploit the graveyard or card advantage. Pair it with Teferi's Ageless Insight for double the draw or Archaeomancer to retrieve your key spells from the graveyard. Use this card to turn the tide of battle, ensuring your victory is as clever as it is inevitable.
