Enduring Curiosity

Enchantment Creature — Cat Glimmer2 generic manaBlue manaBlue mana

Card advantage engines have historically been slow, defensive, and easy to punish: enchant a creature and eat a two-for-one, or sit behind a permanent that draws only if you survive. This one bolts that engine directly onto a threat with a body big enough to matter in combat, and it draws for any creature you control connecting, not just itself. The flash timing is the sharpest part of the package: cast it on an opponent's end step to leave up mana, then swing as a 4/3 the following turn with the draw-on-damage clause already online. What makes the design more than an aggressive Curiosity variant is the death trigger. Kill it and it comes back, but as an enchantment, not a creature, which flips its purpose entirely: the removal-baiting body converts into a persistent draw source that no longer dies to creature removal and no longer attacks, but keeps firing every time your team gets in. Opponents are left choosing between letting the beater draw cards or killing it and handing you a resilient, uninteractive engine. The Glimmer subtype and this "enduring" template represent a broader era of enchantment creatures built to survive the first answer and change roles on the way out, but here the two halves are unusually well matched: aggression that rewards attacking, and a fallback that rewards having attacked.

Flash Whenever a creature you control deals combat damage to a player, draw a card. When Enduring Curiosity dies, if it was a creature, return it to the battlefield under its owner's control. It's an enchantment. (It's not a creature.)
