Bilbo, Thief in the Night - The Hobbit (Mythic) [HOB-33]

Bilbo, Thief in the Night is a 2/2 Halfling Rogue from The Hobbit set, costing {1}{U} to cast. This creature reduces the cost of spells cast from outside your hand by {1}, making it easier to utilise cards from your graveyard or exile. Whenever Bilbo attacks, you have the option to cast an artifact, instant, or sorcery from your graveyard, with the added benefit that if it would go to your graveyard again, it gets exiled instead. This ability allows for recurring value from your graveyard and can enable some explosive plays, particularly in decks that focus on graveyard synergy or spellslinger strategies. However, its low toughness means that it can be vulnerable to removal, so protecting it while taking advantage of its abilities is key. **As a Commander:** Bilbo’s colour identity is blue, making him suitable for a control or spellslinger deck. His abilities can create a unique playstyle that revolves around casting spells from the graveyard, allowing for interesting interactions with cards that self-mill or generate tokens. While he can work as a commander, his lower stats may incentivise using him in the 99 of a spellslinger deck where you can maximise the value from his cost-reduction and graveyard recursion capabilities.
