Scurrilous Sentry Shadowed Conniver
Scurrilous Sentry slides into play as a lean threat for black themed decks. For {3}{B}, you get a 2/3 with menace that presses through blockers and demands attention. Its connive ability triggers on both entering the battlefield and attacking, letting you draw a card, discard a card, and if the discarded card is nonland, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature. This built in filtering and growth helps you sculpt the late game while keeping board presence steady.
Guarding Secrets and Shadows, it fits a steady plan that rewards careful card selection and incremental advantage. Queen Marchesa's agents always manage to find the exact evidence they're looking for, a flavor echo that underscores the card's quiet reliability. In Modern Horizons 3, the light play foil catches the eye with a subtle shimmer, making it a practical addition for players who value consistent value over flashy tempo.
