Atris, Oracle of Half-Truths
$0.20
Legendary Creature — Human Advisor

Dimir value control that splits its own top cards into piles, refills its hand and grinds the table out with disruption and stolen threats.
Read more
When Atris enters, an opponent looks at your top three cards and splits them into a face-down pile and a face-up pile. You take one pile into your hand and the other goes to your graveyard. Either way, all three cards end up somewhere useful, so the deck plays flicker effects to repeat the trigger and graveyard tools to use the cards that get binned. Menace on a 3/2 body adds a little pressure.
In the recorded games, Atris was built as a slow control deck. It used counterspells and removal to hold the table, then reused the pile trigger through blinks and reanimation to stay ahead on cards. Praetor's Grasp turned up as a way to take an opponent's best card for itself. One version leaned into combo, using the extra cards to dig for its pieces while countermagic covered it. With eight games recorded, the deck looked better at grinding than at closing, and its wins came late after opponents had run out of resources.
