Frilled Mystic (RNA)

Creature — Elf Lizard Wizard

Flash When this creature enters, you may counter target spell.

Reliable counterspell on a body for tempo and midrange decks. Frilled Mystic combines the flexibility of instant-speed interaction with a relevant creature that pressures opponents, making it a solid fit in Pioneer and Modern decks that want to blend defense with offense. The four-mana cost is fair for the effect, though it's less efficient than dedicated counterspells and competes with other flash creatures in the same slot—best suited for strategies that specifically reward creatures over sorcery-speed answers.
