Unwelcome Sprite
Faeries have always flirted with instant-speed play, but their payoffs usually lived in the interaction itself: the tempo of a bounce, the two-for-one of a countered spell. This flier attaches a graveyard engine to that same habit, and its trigger is pointedly indifferent to what you cast. Fire off any spell while an opponent is acting and you sculpt your next two draws, dumping delve fuel or flashback fodder into the yard and digging past whatever you did not want. It converts the discipline of leaving mana open into card selection you were harvesting for free, so reactive play stops being purely reactive. The 2/1 flying body is both the cost and the clock: fragile enough to fall to almost any blocker, evasive enough to close a grinding game while the surveil quietly builds. The design leans on a specific player behavior rather than a specific card: it does not ask what is in your deck, only that you have learned to hold up mana and respond instead of tapping out and hoping. Read that way, it is less a two-drop than a tax break for correct timing, rewarding the habit that flash-heavy blue has always wanted an excuse to keep.
