Character Background
The Master, Formed Anew is the Time Lord Rogue’s promise that every stolen future becomes your own present: by exiling a creature you control and slapping a takeover counter on it, you turn one solid body into a reusable threat that can enter as a copy of your best available exile target. In practice, it supports a value-heavy control or tempo game plan, because you get to convert a creature you already have into a fresh, resilient attacker or utility piece without paying the full cost of rebuilding. Build around creatures with strong “best case” profiles—ETB effects, key keywords, or high impact bodies—so your takeover counter copy is almost always relevant, and include multiple modular targets (e.g., creatures you’re happy to sacrifice or whose removal doesn’t break your plan). Deckbuilding-wise, prioritize self-recurring or protected creatures to maximize the number of times you can safely create takeover targets, and consider pairing with blink or recursion shells to keep the exile pool stocked.
