Scolding Administrator
Oracle Text
Menace (This creature can't be blocked except by two or more creatures.)
Repartee — Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets a creature, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.
When this creature dies, if it had counters on it, put those counters on up to one target creature.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Scolding Administrator fits neatly into a proactive Orzhov tempo or value deck, where it plays double duty as an early attacker and a payoff for targeted spells. Menace makes it awkward to block, so even a 2/2 can pressure life totals while threatening to snowball. The real strength is Repartee: every pump spell, protection trick, bounce spell, or combat trick that targets a creature grows it larger, turning inexpensive interaction into permanent board presence. In Strixhaven terms, it feels like a stern campus enforcer who rewards disciplined spellcasting, and the death trigger reinforces that sense of institutional persistence by passing its counters to another creature. Build around cheap instants such as tricks, removal, and white-black combat spells to maximize its growth, and pair it with creatures that like counters or can benefit from being the backup recipient if the Administrator falls. This makes it especially strong in grindy games where incremental value matters.
