Thalakos Deceiver, Creature — thalakos wizard, designed by Andrew Robinson first released in Mar, 1998 in the set Stronghold.
This Thalakos Deceiver card would be a great fit for a control deck that focuses on disrupting your opponent's strategy and gaining control of key creatures on the battlefield. While it offers a unique ability to steal creatures, there are potentially better options like Control Magic or Treachery that provide more consistent and powerful effects. Thalakos Deceiver could see play in specific decks looking for a surprise steal, but overall, its situational nature may limit its inclusion in competitive play.

If an attacking creature has multiple evasion abilities, such as shadow and flying, a creature can block it only if that creature satisfies all of the appropriate evasion abilities.

An ability that triggers when something “attacks and isn’t blocked” triggers in the declare blockers step after blockers are declared if (1) that creature is attacking and (2) no creatures are declared to block it. It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step.
