Description

Xira, the Golden Sting (DMC-48 foil) is a legendary Insect Assassin creature from the Dominaria United Commander set. It has flying and haste and grants an ability that puts an egg counter on another creature when Xira attacks, creating a delayed effect that draws a card and makes a 1/1 flying Insect token if that creature dies with the counter. Its three-color identity (B/G/R) and egg-counter mechanic encourage sacrifice or removal synergies and aggressive attack-based strategies.
