Character Background
Leonardo, Leader in Blue reads like a tempo-aggro piece that rewards an attacking board and clever sequencing: his Sneak cost trades a bounced unblocked attacker for a surprise, tapped-and-attacking 2/1 while giving your team +2/+0—perfect for one-turn lethal pushes or forcing trades. Play him in low-curve white aggro or tempo shells that generate lots of cheap attackers and token bodies; he meshes particularly well with evasion sources (flying, unblockable effects or equipment like Whispersilk Cloak) to reliably create the “unblocked attacker” trigger and with creatures that have useful enter-the-battlefield effects you want to reuse. The 1W first strike activation turns him into a favorable combat trick and makes him a decent blocker in a pinch. Deckbuilding tip: include a high density of 1–2 mana attackers and a couple of bounce or redraw engines so you can capitalize on replaying creatures post-sneak, and remember his legendary status—he’s a one-of leader, not a flood-in strategy.
