Allies in the Shadows: Mage's Attendant
Step into the bustling streets of New Capenna with Mage's Attendant, a clever Cat Rogue ready to turn the tide of battle. For just {2} colorless mana, this 3/2 creature not only brings a solid body to the field but also creates a 1/1 blue Wizard creature token upon entering the battlefield.

The synergy with cards like Counterspell or Mana Leak allows for a versatile game plan, keeping your opponents on edge.
In the lore of New Capenna, crime can forge unexpected alliances, and Mage's Attendant embodies this spirit perfectly. Whether you're using it to bolster your defenses or to maintain control over the game, this card is a valuable addition to any deck. Its unassuming appearance hides a tactical advantage that can shift the balance in your favor. With its Uncommon rarity, it’s a must-have for players looking to enhance their strategies.
