Artist's Talent
The Class enchantment frame was built for exactly this kind of card: a cheap enabler that pays off in stages, with each level bought at sorcery speed so it never ambushes anyone. What separates this one from the pack is that all three tiers point the same direction. The base ability rummages off every noncreature spell (discard first, then draw), which trades away a dead card rather than digging blind, so a spell-heavy hand stays fresh instead of clogged. Level 2 shaves a generic mana off those same spells, and it is the tier plenty of decks stop at, because a discount on burn, cantrips, and rituals compounds faster than any single big payoff. Level 3 is the reason to keep climbing: a flat +2 tacked onto any noncombat damage event a source you control aims at an opponent or their permanents. A two-damage burn spell becomes four, a four becomes six; the bonus applies once per damage event, not per point, so a spell that hits multiple targets separately can pick up the boost more than once. The tension is that the rummage trigger wants a low, cheap curve while the level costs demand real mana committed to the enchantment over several turns, so the deck has to decide how deep it can afford to invest before the spells stop mattering. It reads as a value engine and functions as a burn amplifier, which is the more interesting read: a card that quietly leans on direct damage while pretending to be a painter's card-filtering hobby.
