Sacrifice this creature: Counter target spell unless its controller pays {2}.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Spiketail Drakeling is a perfect little Blue tempo-control tool: a 2/2 flier for three mana that threatens to turn any key spell into a clunky, taxed play. In practice, it shines in decks that want to stay ahead on board while protecting a lead, especially when you can force awkward sequencing from the opponent. The sacrifice ability is most valuable when held up on turns where you can still develop elsewhere, or when you expect a high-impact removal spell, sweeper, or combo piece. It pairs especially well with bounce spells, blink effects, or recursion that let you reuse the body after cashing in the counter-tax, and it fits naturally into Curiosity-style evasive shells or classic blue-white tempo builds. Flavorfully, the Drakeling feels like a small but nimble sky predator, harrying intruders just long enough for the mage’s plan to take shape.
