Double Cut: Mary Read and Anne Bonny
Mary Read and Anne Bonny arrives as a compact yet potent commander for players who prize tempo and card advantage. The pair costs {1}{U}{R} and presents as a 3/3 Legendary Creature Human Assassin Pirate with haste, enabling immediate pressure the turn they hit the battlefield. Their tap ability reads like a low cost redraw engine: tap to draw a card then discard a card. That loop keeps your hand lean while fueling graveyard synergies and deliberate discards in blue red shells.
Tactically the card rewards thoughtful discard targets. Whenever you discard an Island, Pirate, or Vehicle card you create a tapped Treasure token, which turns deliberate trashing into ramp or surprise value. In lore the duo fits Assassin Creed stealth and subterfuge, operating at the edge of law and ledger while trading blows with sudden strikes. If you pilot artifact or pirate tribal decks or a graveyard focused Izzet build, this foil etched print functions both as play piece and showpiece for competitive Commander and casual Cube lists. Add to your collection and deploy their tricks in your next game.
