Mist Dancer: Cavern Aircaller
Mist Dancer is a pragmatic addition to any blue commander deck that leans on tribal synergy. For a modest cost you get a 3/3 flyer that passively grants your other Merfolk +1/+0 and flying, tightening board presence and turning landwalks into real pressure. The body is serviceable on its own and improves the attack lanes of token or small lords without demanding complex sequencing.
The Encore ability reads like a late game plan for grinding opponents down through replicated assaults. Exiling this from your graveyard produces token copies that attack each opponent, gain haste and then disappear at the next end step. Use it when you can create a multiheaded offensive that forces unfavorable blocks or when you need to end a stalled game. The card fits well in decks that can reliably fill the graveyard and that favor tempo driven finishes rather than elaborate combo lines.
