Character Background

Cursed Mirror is a compact red utility piece that excels in tempo/value shells: on turn two it can masquerade as an opponent’s big threat with haste to steal tempo or copy a high-impact ETB and then quietly become a one-mana red rock afterward, so it functions as both an aggression enabler and a late-game mana source. Because the copy effect applies as it enters, you can net the copied creature’s enter-the-battlefield triggers (think huge treasure makers or single-shot threats) once, making it a terrific one‑off answer in midrange or brew decks that want flexible threats. Build around it with flicker or sacrifice recursion—blink effects to re‑enter as a new copy or outlets like Altar of Dementia/Goblin Bombardment to sacrifice and recur the artifact—so you can reuse ETBs, and avoid copying your own legendary creatures to dodge the legend rule. Be mindful that it’s fragile to spot removal while it’s a creature, so pair it with protective plays or use it opportunistically against tapped-out opponents.
