Satoru, the Infiltrator
Satoru, the Infiltrator is a compact, efficient legend for decks that prize incremental advantage and evasive threats. As a 2/3 with menace for {2}{U}{B} he trades well and forces opponents to block with two creatures or take damage. The card rewards low cost creature deployment and sneak plays because its draw trigger cares about creatures entering the battlefield without being cast or without mana spent to cast them.
Use Satoru in a build that leverages ninjutsu, flicker effects, reanimation, or token generators to turn routine plays into card advantage. In lore terms Satoru moves through city shadows just beyond most watchful eyes. Practically speaking this creature converts surprise development into consistent card flow while still providing pressure on the board.
