Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Thought Monitor is a classic Modern Horizons 2 payoff for artifact-heavy decks, turning a steep six-mana flier into an efficient cantrip threat once your board is developed. Its best home is usually value or combo-control shells, where affinity for artifacts lets it come down early while still replacing itself immediately with two fresh cards. The card rewards you for doing the thing artifact decks already want to do: flood the battlefield with cheap baubles, mana rocks, and tokens, then convert that board presence into a resilient evasive body. In practice, it fits especially well alongside zero- and one-mana artifacts, treasure or clue makers, and cards that care about artifact count. A strong deckbuilding tip is to treat Thought Monitor as both card advantage and pressure, since a 2/2 flyer can chip in while refilling your hand. In tempo-heavy games, it helps stabilize momentum without sacrificing board development.
