Scarlet Witch, Wanda Maximoff

Legendary Creature — Mutant Warlock Hero2 generic manaRed mana

In the fiction, this is the character whose power set can rewrite reality itself, and the card face responds to that by staying almost entirely quiet: one keyword, one modest body, and a text box that refuses to chase the spectacle. That silence is the design choice, not a lapse. This is a legendary meant to be the recognizable name on the front of a deck rather than an engine that mines value from its own printing, so the stats work as a chassis: the surrounding build supplies the payoff while the card itself stays legible for the players it is meant to draw in. Menace is the one function earning its keep here, and it earns it cheaply. Forcing two blockers to answer a single attacker is the oldest way to tax a defender without paying for true evasion, and it opens a lane for whatever the deck wants to hang on a connecting hit: an aura, an equipment, a damage-doubler, a triggered payoff that only fires on combat damage. The body is small enough to trade in a race yet awkward enough to gum up if the opponent commits two creatures to remove it. Read this as intent rather than shortfall: a creature that asks to be built around, not built from, and one whose modest math is the point rather than the compromise.
