Lagrella, the Magpie
$0.21
$0.21Legendary Creature — Human Soldier
Bant blink that exiles creatures across the table, brings yours back with counters, and loops enter triggers for value or combo kills.
Read more
When Lagrella enters, you exile any number of other creatures, each controlled by a different player, until Lagrella leaves the battlefield. When one of those cards returns under your control, it gets two +1/+1 counters. On an opponent's creature, that is removal for as long as Lagrella stays. On your own creature, it is a blink that replays an enter trigger and adds counters. The deck stacks creatures with enter triggers and adds flicker effects to reuse Lagrella.
In the recorded games, the deck used Lagrella to exile key blockers or engines from several opponents at once, which threw their plans off. Smothering Tithe ramped early, and token makers grew the board. The combo version paired Spark Double and other clones with blink effects for endless enter triggers, then used Altar of the Brood to mill every opponent out. Only seven games were recorded. Removal on Lagrella returns all exiled creatures, so instant-speed answers were the main risk.
