Lazav, Familiar Stranger

Description

This uncommon foil card features a mana cost of {1}{U}{B} and serves as a versatile Legendary Creature — Shapeshifter with a power and toughness of 1/4. Designed by artist Tyler Jacobson, the card’s foil finish adds a distinct visual appeal to the standard layout. Gameplay-wise, Lazav operates within the black and blue color identities, with a color identity matching those same colors. The card’s primary ability activates whenever you commit a crime. Upon triggering, you place a +1/+1 counter on Lazav. You may then exile a card from a graveyard; if that exiled card is a creature card, Lazav may become a copy of it until end of turn. This ability triggers only once each turn, making strategic timing essential for players who enjoy the Outlaws of Thunder Junction mechanics.

The Outlaws of Thunder Junction expansion offers a diverse array of cards for enthusiasts, and Lazav, Familiar Stranger stands out due to its shapeshifting capabilities and foil finish.
