Thassa, Guide of the Deep
Thassa, God of the Sea is a reliable engine in blue devotion decks and control shells that want consistent evasive threats. The card doubles as an enchantment and a win condition once your devotion reaches five or more. The upkeep scry keeps your draws in order while the activated ability gives you a repeatable unblockable effect for a single creature when you pay one and a blue.
In Commander games Thassa earns value through repetition and timing. Use her scry to set up counters, removal, or combos and turn a small evasive creature into the commander or finisher with the unblockable trigger. As a mythic from Commander The Lost Caverns of Ixalan the print carries the set feel while staying true to the original strategic role of Thassa in blue archetypes.
