Sly Spy, Creature — human spy, designed by Michael Phillippi first released in Dec, 2017 in the set Unstable and was printed exactly in 6 different ways.
Sly Spy would fit well in a control or discard-themed deck that aims to disrupt opponents' strategies by forcing them to discard key cards, particularly in formats where long-named cards are prevalent, such as in certain casual or thematic builds. While Sly Spy has a unique ability, cards like Thoughtseize or Hymn to Tourach may be more effective for direct hand disruption without needing to deal combat damage first. Additionally, creatures with evasion, like Invisible Stalker, could be more reliable in consistently triggering discard effects. Overall, Sly Spy could see play in a fun, casual deck but may not be optimal in competitive environments.

If you cast an instant or sorcery card put into your hand this way, it’ll be put into its owner’s graveyard as it resolves.

While the card is in your hand, if it would be shuffled into your library, it’s instead shuffled into its owner’s library.
