Illicit Masquerade
Illicit Masquerade is a capable white black metaphor for resurrection through subterfuge in the Murders at Karlov Manor narrative. The enchantment casts at {3}{B} and arrives with Flash so you may interrupt combat, answer removal, or leverage a surprise reanimation window. When Illicit Masquerade enters the battlefield it places an impostor counter on each creature you control which sets up a recurring exchange between the battlefield and your graveyard.
Play it when you can protect the creatures carrying impostor counters or when you need to turn a dying block into card advantage. Each time a creature you control with an impostor counter dies it is exiled and you may return up to one other target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. The effect rewards careful sequencing and graveyard planning and it fits well in aristocratic sacrifice engines and control builds that capitalize on timely recursion. Near Mint extended art print brings a collector friendly look while remaining tournament ready.
