Riku of Many Paths

Description

Riku of Many Paths (OTJ 361) is a legendary 3/3 Human Wizard from Outlaws of Thunder Junction. Whenever you cast a modal spell, Riku’s trigger lets you choose up to X of three effects — exile the top card to potentially play it, put a +1/+1 counter on Riku and give it trample, or create a 1/1 flying Bird — where X equals the number of times a mode was chosen for that spell. This card supports value and tempo strategies by converting modal spell choices into card advantage, board presence, or incremental damage potential.
