Spectral Sailor — Quick Deck Utility
Spectral Sailor from Foundations is a compact tempo piece that earns its keep every time it hits the table. This 1 mana Spirit Pirate arrives with Flash and Flying so it can slip into combat or answer a threat at instant speed. Its body is modest but relevant; the real upside is the repeatable card selection it offers once you have the mana to spare.
Use Spectral Sailor as a reactive draw engine or an evasive chump that becomes a late game card advantage source. The ability to flash in and later pay three and a blue to draw a card lets you preserve tempo while smoothing your curve. Players building blue tempo shells, Izzet mana bases that want cheap evasive blockers, or Foundations drafts will find this uncommon a familiar and practical inclusion.
