Masked Blackguard — Silent Strike
Masked Blackguard from Foundations Jumpstart is a compact but disruptive pick for aggressive and tempo black decks. This 2 1 creature Human Rogue arrives with Flash so it can answer a key threat or surprise an opponent during combat. With a single black pip in its casting cost the card is efficient; the activated ability for two and a black can push damage through or trade up when paired with removal or pump effects.
Played wisely Masked Blackguard shines as an ambush attacker or a last moment chump that becomes a threat. Its printed ability straightforwardly rewards players who hold priority and bait blocks; the card fits into draft archetypes that value interaction and incremental advantage. Condition Near Mint and English printing from Foundations Jumpstart make this a clean, playable piece for cube, limited, or budget constructed lists.
