Character Background
Mind Drill Assailant is a quietly efficient midrange/value tool: a three-mana 2/5 that turns into a 5/5 once you hit seven cards in your graveyard, doubling as a resilient blocker and a surprising win condition once threshold is active. Its {2}{U/B}: Surveil 1 lets you proactively sculpt that graveyard—fueling threshold while filtering draws—so it best supports graveyard-centric midrange or control shells rather than pure aggro; it buys time early and becomes a tempo swing later. Deckbuilding tip: maximize cheap self-mill and card-selection effects (cheap surveil/cantrips, Stitcher’s Supplier-style effects or discard outlets) so you reliably reach seven cards; it also pairs nicely with delve payoffs and flashback cards that love a stocked graveyard (e.g., Gurmag Angler-style threats or value spells). In limited it's a solid common to run multiple of; in constructed, treat it as a glue piece that both protects your life total and accelerates the graveyard plan while offering repeatable yard-thinning on demand.
