Ghostly Wings

What separates this from the dozens of evasion Auras printed before it is the discard outlet stapled to the bottom: enchant a creature, give it +1/+1 and flying, then save it at instant speed any time you can afford to pitch a card. The flying and the stat bump are the bait; the bounce is the function. Most pump Auras are the most card-disadvantageous play in the game, since the creature dies and the enchantment follows it to the graveyard, a two-for-one waiting to happen. Here the discard ability hands you a way out of exactly that trap. Float the activation in response to a removal spell and the enchanted creature returns to its owner's hand before the spell resolves, leaving nothing for the removal to kill. The Aura, though, does not come with it; when the creature leaves the battlefield, the Aura is put into its owner's graveyard as a state-based action. So this is a one-shot escape, not a recurring loop: each creature can be rescued once, and rebuilding the package means redrawing or recasting the Aura from scratch. The price is a card from hand every time, which in a generic blue beatdown shell is steep. In a shell that treats the graveyard as a resource, though, the discard reads less like a tax and more like enablement, the rescue and the fuel arriving in the same motion.
