Kaervek, the Punisher — Reprisal Architect
Kaervek, the Punisher is a compact engine for graveyard recursion and tactical theft. As a 3 3 Legendary Creature Human Warlock that costs {1}{B}{B}, he rewards aggressive deckbuilding that treats interacting with opponents as part of the plan. His trigger reads like a toolbox: whenever you commit a crime you can exile a black card from your graveyard and copy it. The copy can be cast immediately at the cost of two life if you choose to resolve it.
In play the card forces choices. Commit crimes often and you refill your options from both your graveyard and the battlefield. Targeting restrictions matter because crimes can include opponents and their cards. The foil treatment and light play condition make this printing both playable and collectible for players who want a disruptive midrange piece that doubles as a source of recurring value.
