Falcon, Winged Wonder

Legendary Creature — Human Hero4 generic manaBlue mana

The design here is the two-body split: five mana buys a 3/4 flier and a second flier attached, and the token carries the card-selection rider rather than the legend. Redwing's surveil triggers off its own attack, which means the value engine is contingent on committing to combat: the 1/1 has to get into the red zone before it filters anything, so the reward is priced against the risk of walking a fragile flier into blockers. That structure quietly rewards evasion clocks over grindy boards, since the surveil only pays off on turns you're already pressuring. Splitting the flying across two bodies also spreads the aerial threat: removal that answers the 3/4 leaves the graveyard-filtering attacker behind, and removal aimed at the token leaves you a solid evasive body. The naming ties the two together, casting the token as the hero's companion rather than a generic creature, and the surveil-on-attack line reads as the pair scouting ahead. It's a workmanlike blue midrange creature whose real function is card quality over the long game, delivered in a shape that asks you to play to the board rather than sit behind it.
