Jaya, Venerated Firemage
She functions as a damage anthem in planeswalker clothing, editing every red source you control after the fact: Fireballs, creature combat, every ping and bolt gains a flat plus-one, applied at the moment the damage would land rather than baked into any single card. That extra point compounds most where the game already leans on many small hits: a wide board of red attackers, a row of pingers, a pile of X-damage spells all pointed at the same face. It scales with quantity in a way flat rate boosts do not, turning marginal reach into lethal reach across a full turn. Notice the deliberate blind spot in the wording: the buff reads "another red source," so Jaya never amplifies her own minus-two, which deals exactly two. Her removal mode is kept off the anthem she projects to everything else. What makes the design coherent is that both halves point outward: she does not defend herself well and she does not generate card advantage, so she is built to be dropped onto a board that is already threatening lethal and then multiply it. She rewards a burn-and-swarm plan already in motion rather than one hunting for a reason to start.
