not gonna lie, this surprises me. Means UB gets both a mythic and a rare, instead of just one. odd, but as a UB player I welcome it

Overall I'm eh on the card. Maybe if he something more (power/toughness/hexproof) I'd like him more.

Gonti, Lord of Luxury this guy ain't. Doesn't feel especially rare or powerful. At sorcery speed, even on a blinkable body, I'd expect this to do 4 or 5 cards. We've come a long way from Fact or Fiction being back-breaking, and not only is this sorcery speed it is much worse as you have to make your decision based on unknown information.

I'd play Gonti over this any day. Not a fan of my opponent looking at my cards. Three is reasonable. A better comparison would be Fortune's Favor

I'd play this over Gonti any day. Decks are build with cards that c.o.m.b.i.n.e to do things. I just find that when you take a card from an opponent it often doesn't do much on it's own.

At least here you can dig for real ways to win and filling your graveyard would also be part of the build.

Do we know if this character is male or female or neither?
Mirri, Cat Warrior counts as a Cat Warrior.

this reminds me of fact or fiction, although slightly weaker since only 3 cards deep and they are face down.
