Oracle Text

Whenever you activate an ability of a creature, draw a card. This ability triggers only once each turn.
{5}{U}{U}: Exile up to two other target nonland permanents you control. Return those cards to the battlefield under their owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.

Character Background

Elrond, Moon-Reader fits best in a value-focused control or tempo shell, where you can turn repeated creature activations into steady card flow while keeping mana open for interaction. Because his draw trigger only works once each turn, the real payoff comes from spreading activations across turns or using instant-speed creature abilities on both your turn and an opponent’s. He also rewards decks built around tap abilities, adventure-style creatures, or utility creatures with activated effects, since even a single extra card per turn quickly snowballs. His blink-style {5}{U}{U} ability is expensive, but it can protect your best nonland permanents from removal, reset enter-the-battlefield triggers, and even reuse loyalty or artifact value if your deck supports it. In lore terms, he feels like a watcher of hidden tides and shifting fate—measured, precise, and strongest when the game goes long.
