Shadow Recall: Layla Hassan
Layla Hassan plays like a toolbox built into a creature. A 3/4 Legendary Creature Human Assassin for {3}{W}, she has first strike so she reliably trades in combat while triggering card advantage. When Layla Hassan enters the battlefield and whenever one or more Assassins you control deal combat damage to a player, you may return target historic card from your graveyard to your hand. That window for value covers artifacts, legendaries and sagas so she slots smoothly into decks that need recurring answers or late game follow through.
In play she reads as a tempo engine that also replenishes resources. Cast her on a midgame turn to lock favorable blocks with first strike and to recover a key equipment artifact or a legendary threat after a successful strike. The printed ability rewards aggressive Assassin lines and supports artifact or legend based synergies. If you pilot a deck built around combat triggers or historic recursion, Layla Hassan gives a dependable way to convert damage into card advantage. Add one to your binder if you need a repeatable recovery tool with combat presence.
