Riddle the Sky
Sphinx of Forgotten Lore arrives as a compact engine of card advantage and interaction. This Near Mint Foil Foundations mythic plays at instant speed with flash and flies over ground blockers, then converts attacking pressure into graveyard utility. When Sphinx of Forgotten Lore attacks you get a targeted instant or sorcery in your graveyard with flashback until end of turn with a flashback cost equal to that card's mana cost allowing you to reuse removal or dig spells on your terms.
It fits smoothly into control and midrange shells that value tempo and card recursion. The 3 slash 3 body is defensive enough to trade with smaller flyers while the attack trigger creates high impact turns and surprise responses. Add this foil Foundations mythic if you want a playable blue top end that generates repeatable answers and closes games with reliable aerial presence. Pick it up for play or collection and put those forgotten spells back on the stack.
