Spy Network

Information that costs almost nothing to gather, bundled with a top-of-deck tidy for the player casting it. The reach into an opponent's hand, their library's top card, and (the wrinkle that ties it to a specific era) any face-down creatures they control reads as a scout's toolkit built for one environment: a format where morph turned every tapped-out board into a guessing game, and knowing whether the 2/2 was a bluff or a bomb changed how you attacked. The second clause, reordering your own top four, is the part that survives outside that context: a one-mana instant-speed library sculpt that fixes a draw, stacks a known top card, or feeds anything that cares about what sits on top. Card-advantage skeptics will note that it draws nothing and disrupts nothing; it converts mana into knowledge, which is the cheapest and most situational of the three resources. That is exactly why it reads as a designer's experiment in pricing pure information at a single blue pip, with the look-at-four reorder bolted on so the card never feels entirely dead even when the opponent's hand is empty and there is nothing to spy on. Note the reorder keeps the cards in place and changes only their sequence: no shuffle, no draw, just the next four turns arranged how you want them.
