Rishkar's Expertise: Big Draw for Big Boards
Rishkar's Expertise is a clean finisher for creature heavy green decks. It turns board presence into raw card advantage by letting you draw cards equal to the greatest power among creatures you control. Follow that with a free cast of any spell with mana value five or less from your hand to close the gap, protect your lead, or convert a threatening board into a decisive swing. If you build around large utility creatures or pumps one resilient commander into a trampler or lifelinker the moment you cast this spell can be decisive.
From a practical piloting perspective the card rewards proactive development and careful sequencing. Play it when your biggest creature is already on the battlefield and keep a versatile spell in hand for the free cast. The card fits into ramp shells, token strategies, or any deck that can produce a single high power creature reliably. A touch of Ixalan flavor sits in the text as a tactical nod to Rishkar's confidence in bending flows of power and options to his will.
