Recruiter of the Guard
White's answer to Imperial Recruiter, with the toughness restriction doing the same gatekeeping work the original's power restriction does in red. Where the red version fetches small attackers, this one tutors for the entire ecosystem of white utility creatures: hatebears, one-drop disruptors, mana-fixing bodies, and the fragile engine pieces that make up a toolbox. Toughness 2 or less is a wider net than it looks, because so much of white's most important non-attacking text lives on creatures that were never built to survive combat. The body itself is irrelevant; the 1/1 is just the delivery vehicle for the trigger, and the card is priced as a search spell that happens to leave a chump blocker behind. What it really enables is the silver-bullet package: a deck running a handful of narrow, situational creatures can treat this as a fifth or sixth copy of whichever one the matchup demands, fetching a specific hatebear against combo or a specific value engine against grind. That kind of on-demand consistency had long been red's province through Imperial Recruiter and Goblin Matron and black's through demonic tutors; giving white a reusable, color-appropriate creature tutor at this rate quietly closed a gap in what the color could reliably assemble.
