Epochic Tidecaller
Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch is a compact engine for control and value that rewards a hand built around instants. The card pairs a solid flying body with an engine that gives your instants rebound when cast from hand so you can chain answers or threats across turns. Experienced pilots will note the synergy with low cost flash interactions and ways to refill or reuse exile triggers to squeeze two plays from a single card.
Lore wise Ojer reads like a guardian of layered time who returns even after death to press the clock further into your game plan. When it dies it comes back tapped with time counters which makes it reliable against creature removal while preserving the tempo swing it provides. In practice this mythic foil suits blue control shells and a composer approach to instant sequencing in Lost Caverns of Ixalan drafts or focused decks.
