A-Exhibition Magician
A digital-only rebalance whose entire design lives in one fork: once the body resolves and the enters trigger goes on the stack, you decide whether the deck is short on width or short on mana. The Citizen line hands token-swarm plans another warm 1/1 to widen the board; the Treasure line leaves ramp and sacrifice fodder for the artifact-and-aristocrats shells that care less about how many creatures they have and more about what those creatures cost to fuel. Because the mode is not locked in until the trigger goes on the stack, the choice stays live right up to the moment the creature hits the battlefield: the same three-drop bridges two game plans that would otherwise want two different creatures, without forcing the deckbuilder to commit at construction. Neither mode is loud, and neither is meant to be. The modal ETB is a standard tool; the tuning on this version is what gives it its rate, favoring a small role-player that splits the difference rather than one that commits hard to a single axis. This is a mono-red utility body that decides which strategy it serves only after it arrives, useful precisely to decks that could tip in either direction and would rather not spend two slots hedging.
