Thalia, Heretic Cathar — Gatekeeper of Tempo
Thalia, Heretic Cathar is a compact disruption engine that changes how your opponent sequences plays. For a cost of {2}{W} you get a 3/2 with first strike that taxes opponents by forcing creatures and nonbasic lands they control to enter tapped. That effect makes Thalia excellent in aggressive white decks and in control shells that want meaningful tempo advantages against creature heavy and combo strategies. Experienced pilots will note how she pressures plays without needing continuous upkeep.
This Near Mint Foil from Innistrad Remastered showcases Thalia with crisp foil relief that catches light across the artwork and nameplate, perfect for display or tournament use. The card pairs well with cheap removal, tax effects, and fetch land hate; she punishes greedy mulligans and slows opponents while your board stabilizes. Add Thalia to your deck to tilt tight opening turns and to shore up late game sequencing. Pick one up and make your opponent pay for every extra play.
