Ring the Rodeo Bell
Steer Clear is a compact white instant that reads like a utility trick for tempo and combat tricks. Steer Clear deals 2 damage to target attacking or blocking creature. Steer Clear deals 4 damage to that creature instead if you controlled a Mount as you cast this spell. That conditional hit makes it a reliable removal option when you have a mount on the battlefield and a way to punish chump blockers or finish off a damaged attacker.
From a gameplay perspective this card rewards board composition and timing more than raw mana efficiency. Cast it in combat to take out a key blocker or save your life total by removing a lethal attacker. In decks that care about creatures with the Mount subtype it scales up cleanly, turning a simple instant into a one shot finisher or a tempo swing that can free up your next attack step.
