Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad
Oracle Text
First strike
Whenever Altaïr attacks, exile up to one target Assassin creature card from your graveyard with a memory counter on it. Then for each creature card you own in exile with a memory counter on it, create a tapped and attacking token that's a copy of it. Exile those tokens at end of combat.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad is built to reward an aggressive value plan, especially in a Mardu shell that can pressure early and then turn the graveyard into a repeatable resource. First strike makes him a credible attacker and blocker on curve, while his attack trigger effectively “remembers” fallen Assassins and converts them into temporary reinforcements, creating extra combat pressure without needing a wide board. The best support here is a mix of self-mill, looting, and cheap Assassins so you can stock the graveyard quickly and keep triggering meaningful copies. Cards that sacrifice themselves, recur themselves, or provide strong enter-the-battlefield effects become especially attractive, since the copied token arrives tapped and attacking and only needs one good swing to matter. Deckbuilding tip: prioritize a dense Assassin suite with evasive or impactful combat abilities, because the token copies inherit those traits for explosive tempo swings.
