Character Background
Drogskol Reaver reads like a late-game value finisher for a UW control or midrange shell: a flying Spirit that double strikes with lifelink and turns every point of life gained into a card, so its combat stickiness both stabilizes your life total and refuels your hand. Thematically it feels like a revenant that literally converts damage into information, and mechanically the double strike means it deals damage twice and grants lifelink twice, producing two separate life-gain events — and thus two card draws — if it connects. Build it into a value plan that wants to grind out long games: include cheap, repeatable life sources (Soul Warden or Ajani’s Pridemate-style payoffs and token generators like Secure the Wastes/Spectral Procession) so Reaver becomes an engine rather than a one-shot. Because it’s expensive and vulnerable to removal, pack interaction and recursion (spot protection, counterspells, a blink or two) and treat it as a finisher that snowballs card advantage and stabilizes you while you close the game.
