Character Background
Baxter, Fly in the Ointment is a value-leaning tempo piece for blue decks that can afford to play him and immediately impact combat. With {3}{U}, he’s a workable curve-topper, and his ongoing draw trigger—putting a +1/+1 counter on Baxter whenever you draw—rewards steady card flow, letting him grow while also improving your board’s threat profile. The payoff is defensive and aggressive at once: when Baxter enters or attacks, every creature you control that already has a counter gains flying until end of turn, turning ground-bound attackers into evasive pressure and making blocks awkward for opponents. To maximize his effect, prioritize counter sources: consider cards that proliferate or distribute counters, and build around draw engines (from simple cantrips to more dedicated “draw-and-brew” packages). In practice, aim to play Baxter alongside a shell that reliably puts counters on multiple creatures, so his flying-grant becomes a full-board swing rather than a single-creature trick.
