Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Mischievous Pup is a deceptively flexible little tool in Magic: The Gathering, and in The Lost Caverns of Ixalan it feels like the kind of scrappy dog that darts into danger, knocks something over, and slips away before anyone can punish it. In gameplay, it best supports tempo and value shells: a 3/1 flash creature for three mana can ambush attackers or pressure planeswalkers, then bounce one of your own permanents to reset an enters-the-battlefield trigger, save a key piece from removal, or reuse a powerful token-maker or artifact. It is especially attractive in white decks built around ETB value, where returning a cheap permanent can effectively turn the Pup into extra card advantage. A strong synergy tip is pairing it with permanents that have “when this enters” effects, especially token producers or utility creatures, so you can double-dip on value while keeping up interaction.
