Three Steps Ahead, Tactical Foresight
Three Steps Ahead offers a compact toolkit for blue decks that want flexible answers and incremental advantage. As an instant with the spree mechanic, it lets you mix and match effects when you cast it, turning a single play into countermagic, copy generation, or card selection. The extended art frame highlights a calm, calculated outlaw plotting several moves ahead, fitting the Outlaws of Thunder Junction mood without theatrics.
Play it to stop a problematic spell, to duplicate a key artifact or creature, or to dig for the exact card you need while discarding a less useful one. Experienced players will appreciate how the options chain together, allowing you to allocate resources depending on the game state. This Near Mint extended art print is both a playable tool and a tasteful addition to a blue control or value deck.
