Loran of the Third Path

Loran of the Third Path is a quirky little utility creature that plays the role of targeted removal with a cooperative twist. Her main appeal is that ETB effect—destroying an artifact or enchantment—which slots her into artifact/enchantment-heavy metas. The tap ability is unusual: you're essentially splitting card draw with an opponent, which works best in slower, grindy games where you can afford the symmetry or in group play where politics matter.

Build this as a light control or midrange shell focused on resource denial and tempo swings. Pair her with artifact/enchantment synergies like Leonin Abunas or other pieces that reward you for running removal-friendly creatures. Since you're in mono-white, lean into board wipes, creature-based interaction, and tax effects. The card draw tap ability is genuinely valuable in longer games, turning Loran into a repeatable source of advantage. Win via combat damage backed by a resilient creature suite and occasional evasion.
