Shao Jun: Silent Strike
Shao Jun is a compact and efficient Legendary Creature that rewards tight timing and artifact synergies. This Near Mint Foil Etched Shao Jun from Universes Beyond Assassin's Creed arrives with Leap Strike, giving her flying and first strike on your turn and turning combat math into an advantage. The printed Rope Dart ability taxes your board by tapping two untapped artifacts you control to ping each opponent for one, which reads as a steady incremental win condition in multiplayer or a tempo nudge in one on one play.
As a 3 3 Human Assassin that costs {1}{U}{R}, Shao Jun fits into equipment and artifact decks or any shell that wants a repeatable source of reach and incremental damage. The foil etched finish highlights the night time roofline art and keeps the card attractive in play or on display. If you play to the card text and sequence your attacks on your turn, Shao Jun reliably converts board resources into damage and evasive pressure. Add this foil to a sideboard or commander list where precision and synergy matter and put her into play the next time you plan to close a tight game.
