Roshan, Hidden Magister
Oracle Text
Other creatures you control are Assassins in addition to their other types. The same is true for creature spells you control and creature cards you own that aren't on the battlefield.
Face-down creatures you control have menace.
Whenever a permanent you control is turned face up, you draw a card and you lose 1 life.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Roshan, Hidden Magister reads like a commander and sideboard staple for decks that want to capitalize on deception and incremental advantage: its static effect retrofits every creature (and creature spell/card you own) into an Assassin, and granting menace to face-down creatures turns hidden 2/2 attackers into lethal threats—so the best game plan is a tempo/value hybrid that presses damage with evasive face-down threats while converting flips into card advantage. Build around cheap morph/manifest bodies and reliable ways to turn permanents face up on your terms (dedicated "turn face up" effects, megamorph-style payoffs, or repeatable blink engines) to harvest the draw-trigger each time; accept the small life toll as the price of velocity. Also include Assassin lords or sacrifice outlets and targeted removal to exploit the tribal tag. In limited and Standard-like environments, Roshan rewards deceptive aggression and flip synergies; in Commander, pair it with a blink package and a heap of low-cost morphs for a deadly, card-drawing attrition engine.
