Jecht, Reluctant Guardian: Menace That Returns
Jecht, Reluctant Guardian arrives as a potent force on the battlefield, commanding attention at a cost of {3}{B}. This Legendary Human Warrior carries the Menace ability, requiring multiple blockers to halt his advance, which forces your opponent to rethink their defense strategy. His 4/3 body strikes a balance between offense and resilience, allowing Jecht to apply pressure while staying relevant in combat exchanges.
What truly sets Jecht apart is his unique resilience mechanism. Each time he deals combat damage to a player, you may exile him temporarily, only to return him transformed to the battlefield. This ability not only disrupts your opponent’s plans but also fuels long-term board presence. Integrating Jecht into decks that exploit recurring threats or synergize with exile triggers can create a formidable tempo advantage. For players blending lore and strategy, Jecht represents a guardian who never stays down for long.
