Lockjaw, Slobbering Teleporter

Lockjaw is a slick tempo threat that grows into an evasive attacker with minimal setup. Every noncreature spell you cast pumps him with a +1/+1 counter and grants him (plus a friend) unblockable status for the turn—meaning you're turning cantrips, interaction, and ramp into both card advantage and combat pressure. The gameplan is to build a lean, efficient deck stuffed with cheap spells (instants, sorceries, artifacts) that fuel Lockjaw's counters while keeping your board flowing. You're not trying to combo out or go infinite; you're just jamming evasive damage every turn while drawing cards and staying interactive.

The deck wants to play like a tempo/spellslinger shell: cast your utility spells, grow Lockjaw, send him and maybe one other flyer over unblocked, and ride that steady advantage to victory. Pair him with equipment like Captain America's Shield or Vibranium Strike Gauntlets to maximize his evasion and damage output. You can sprinkle in +1/+1 counter synergies (Training Regimen, Super-Soldier Serum) to make him scarier, but the core is honestly just "cast spells, attack, win."

Blue's limited creature pool means you'll lean hard on noncreature spells for velocity. Pym Particles is a natural fit—it literally gives Lockjaw the boost and evasion he wants in one card. Glorious Purpose (Plan enchantment) pairs well with card-draw triggers, and cards like Super Intelligence or The Mind Stone help you keep resources flowing.
