Legendary Creature — Dragon
Flying Whenever Crosis deals combat damage to a player, you may pay {2}{B}. If you do, choose a color, then that player reveals their hand and discards all cards of that color.
“Flying dragon that discards opponents' hands one color at a time.”
Crosis, the Purger is a flying dragon that punishes opponents by forcing hand disruption whenever it connects in combat. Your goal is to turn Crosis into a repeatable threat that deals damage consistently, then leverage its triggered ability to strip away opponents' resources. Since Crosis needs to connect to activate its discard effect, you'll want evasion, protection, and ways to make combat damage unavoidable—think unblockable effects, shroud, or simply overloading the board so blocking becomes impossible.
The deck plays as a tempo-control hybrid: use counterspells and removal to protect Crosis while it damages down opponents, then convert those discard triggers into game-winning advantages. You're not trying to kill everyone in one hit; instead, you're gradually dismantling their hands while Crosis pounds in the air. Pair this with cards that benefit from opponent discards (like wheel effects or cards that reward you when opponents discard) to turn disruption into card advantage.

Skip pricey tutors like Mystical Tutor; use cheaper alternatives like Muddle the Mixture and Mystical Reflection. Staple protection like Lightning Greaves is more essential than format powerhouses.
