Illusion Spinners

Creature — Faerie Wizard4 generic manaBlue mana

Hexproof that holds only while untapped is a shield that fails at the exact moment the body is asked to do its job. Attack with this 4/3 flier and the protection lapses: it sits as a legal target for the whole of the opponent's turn, right when a removal spell held for precisely this window can pick it off. Sit back and it is untouchable but doing nothing. That trade defines the body, turning a flier that would otherwise demand a hard answer into a creature you dare the opponent to deal with on their terms. The Faerie condition sharpens all of it. With one on board, the spell gains flash, so it can be held up on the opponent's end step or dropped in response to a combat that has already gone sideways, arriving untapped, hexproof, and past the reach of any sorcery-speed removal that might have preempted it. Faerie decks have always run on instant-speed disruption and holding priority; this folds a threat into that same reactive posture, letting you land a clock without ever tapping out into an open window.
