Stoic Sphinx: Watchful Skywarden
Stoic Sphinx rewards timing and restraint. With a casting cost of {2}{U}{U} you can hold it back until an opponent commits resources and then flash it in to block or threaten an aerial clock. It pairs flash and flying for immediate board impact and grants conditional hexproof when you keep your hands clean that turn, which makes it a reliable midrange tool against targeted removal.
From the Outlaws of Thunder Junction frame comes a creature that fits both tempo and control plans. Use it to protect a key piece or to present a fast clock while keeping your options open during combat. The card plays cleanly in blue decks that value interaction and reads like a strategic answer for matches where timing and protection matter.
