Mogis's Favor

Auras that trade toughness for power have always been priced cheaply because they do so little on their own: pump one creature, hand your opponent a two-for-one when the body dies. Escape rewrites that math. The +2/-1 is a serviceable bump on an evasive attacker or a body slated for the sacrifice altar, but the reason to run this over black's other aggressive Auras is that it refuses to stay dead. When removal eats the enchanted creature, the Aura waits in the graveyard as fuel you can recast directly for its escape cost, exiling two other cards to pay the toll. The design here is graveyard-as-mana: an aggressive one-drop that becomes a recurring pump spell the deck can cash in whenever the board stalls, at the cost of thinning the reservoir escape wants to draw from. That tension is the whole point. Each recast asks whether the two exiled cards were worth more as future escape fuel than as a burst of damage now, and in a self-milling, sacrifice-hungry black shell that question resolves in the Aura's favor more often than a plain +2/-1 has any right to.
