Sleep with the Fishes

Description

Sleep with the Fishes is a distinct blue Enchantment — Aura card from Magic: The Gathering's 2022 Streets of New Capenna expansion. Identified as card number 61 with the set code SNC, this Uncommon rarity card offers a compelling tactical option for players who value resource denial and board control. The card is visually attributed to artist Randy Gallegos, whose work defines the aesthetic of this release within the broader Magic: The Gathering universe. As a blue mana investment, the card requires a mana cost of two generic mana and two blue mana, totaling a mana value of four. Its primary function revolves around controlling the flow of combat. When played, it taps the enchanted creature and forces the controller to create a 1/1 blue Fish creature token. This token possesses the critical ability to cannot be blocked, allowing for unimpeded damage delivery in subsequent turns. Furthermore, the Aura imposes a significant restriction on the enchanted creature, preventing it from untapping during its controller's untap step. This effectively locks the creature in place, neutralizing its defensive or offensive utility for a full cycle. Collectors and players interested in the Streets of New Capenna set will appreciate Sleep with the Fishes for its straightforward yet impactful design. It represents a classic example of blue magic's strategy to manipulate the game state through temporary incapacitation and token generation. For those building decks centered around the Fish tribal theme or seeking reliable disruption tools, this card serves as a foundational piece. Its presence in the set highlights the creative direction of the 2022 expansion, blending thematic flavor with functional gameplay mechanics. Whether for competitive construction or casual play, understanding the nuances of this Aura is essential for any Magic: The Gathering enthusiast looking to master the intricacies of card interaction and tempo control.
