Arbaaz Mir
$0.31
Legendary Creature — Human Assassin

Boros historic deck that pings every opponent and gains life each time an artifact, legendary or Saga enters.
Read more
Whenever Arbaaz Mir or another nontoken historic permanent you control enters, it deals 1 damage to each opponent and you gain 1 life. Artifacts, legendaries and Sagas all count, so the deck plays a lot of cheap artifacts, legendary creatures and legendary lands to rack up small drains. Since tokens don't count, flicker effects and artifacts that can be sacrificed and returned add extra triggers. The win comes from many small hits over a long game rather than one big turn.
In the recorded games, Foundry Inspector made historic artifacts cheaper and sped up the drain, and some versions used legendary lands as extra triggers. The deck also tried to build an artifact sacrifice loop for repeated pings. With few games recorded, results were mixed. The deck had no single big finisher, so games came down to how many historic permanents it could keep landing. The life gain and steady damage kept it in games, but it often struggled to keep pace with more aggressive decks, and a timely counterspell like Mana Drain set it back.
