Rimekin Recluse

Blue's tempo tax, packaged in a body that actually fights back. The lineage of the enters-the-battlefield bounce creature runs from Man-o'-War forward: pay a little extra for a creature that resets the board state by a turn, buying you a swing in initiative for the cost of the opponent's redeploy. What separates this one is the "up to one other" wording, which does more work than it looks like. The bounce is optional, so an empty board never strands the card; it targets other creatures, so it cannot be forced to bounce itself into an awkward reload; and it can reach across the table at your opponent's threat or back at your own to reuse a stronger enter trigger. That flexibility is the whole reason a 3/2 for carries this effect rather than a smaller frame: the body has to be able to attack and trade to justify a tempo play that only nets you a single turn. Where older versions of this template sat behind larger, defensive statlines, this one leans into the offensive read, a Wizard that clears a blocker on the turn it lands and then keeps pressing. It rewards a deck that wants to be ahead and stay ahead, using the bounce to peel back the one creature standing in the way rather than to dig itself out of trouble.
