Character Background
Eleventh Hour reads like a late-game toolkit for value/combo decks: for 3U it tutors a Doctor, makes a Food and a 1/1 that reduces Doctor costs, then creates a copy of any creature as a legendary Alien Prisoner Zero. Thematically it captures a last-minute rescue and a personality transposition rather than strict canon. Practically it supports value and combo strategies — tutor + discount sets up cheap chains of Doctor spells, and the chapter III copy can grab opponents' threats or duplicate your own finishers. Deckbuilding tips: pack several low-cost Doctor spells to exploit the cost reduction, include nonlegendary targets (or ways to sac or blink the copy) to avoid losing it to the legend rule, and consider blink/bounce effects to re-enter the Saga for repeated tutoring and discounting. Protect the Saga long enough to reach III (counterspells, recursion) and you'll convert tempo into overwhelming late-game advantage.
