Legendary Creature — Human WizardWhite manaBlue manaBlack manaRed manaGreen mana

A five-color Wizard whose whole reason for existing is a museum tour of the game's founding vocabulary. Every entry in his tutor-and-copy list is a piece of the original design language: a catch-all artifact-and-enchantment answer in Disenchant, a raw card-draw engine in Braingeyser, a splashy removal spell in Terror, a fatty finisher in Shivan Dragon, a graveyard-recursion staple in Regrowth, and the most infamous mana rock ever printed in Black Lotus. The tap ability is a slow drip, one name per activation and no repeats, so he doles the toolbox out across turns rather than dumping it. Copying is not casting for free, though: you still pay each spell's cost, and Black Lotus is the one name that hands you back the mana to keep the sequence running. That makes him a self-contained value loop that reaches its ceiling only if he survives multiple untap steps, since the interesting spells are gated one per turn behind the tap. He is less a combo piece than a curated deck-in-a-card, an homage that turns six landmark cards into a repeatable menu, with the plain 5/5 body almost incidental to the point. The reward is not raw power so much as the pleasure of watching the game's oldest tools cycle through one permanent, one at a time.
