Grim Playmate
Twitching Doll arrives as a compact engine piece for black decks in Duskmourn. On the battlefield it reads like a steady tax on your opponent's resources while providing a recurring board presence that scales with attrition. The card rewards careful timing; cast it after a sweep or before combat to maximize value and pressure slot limited hands or creature-based plans.
The design fits the set tone without theatrics. Twitching Doll plays as a small creature that produces incremental advantage each time your opponents lose board pieces. It slots cleanly into Aristocrat shells, sacrifice decks and control lists that want a low cost threat with a resilient upside. Expect it to pivot matches where grind and incremental gains decide the late game.
