Visage Bandit — Mirror Trick
Visage Bandit rewards timing and board presence. Cast for {3}{U} to get a 2/2 Shapeshifter Rogue that can enter as a copy of any creature you control while keeping Rogue as an additional type. That line reads simply on the card but shifts how you approach tempo. Bring copies of value creatures into play to dodge removal or to reset enter the battlefield effects without needing literal reanimation tools.
Plot gives you a different axis to play from hand. Pay 2{U} to exile it as part of Plot and later cast it without paying its mana cost. Use Plot when you need a surprise copy mid game or when you want to hold resources open. Between the copy clause and Plot, this card is practical in blue strategies that favor incremental advantage and flexible answers in a tight board state.
