What it does
First strike, menace
Whenever you cast your first instant or sorcery spell each turn, you may cast a spell with lesser mana value that shares a card type with it from your hand without paying its mana cost. If you don't, create First Mate Ragavan, a legendary 2/1 red Monkey Pirate creature token. It gains haste until end of turn.

Where it came from
Baral and Kari Zev was first released as a promotional card for the Magic: The Gathering set March of the Machine in 2023. This card features a unique collaboration between two characters from disparate narrative arcs within the Multiverse—Baral, Chief of Compliance from the Kaladesh setting, and Kari Zev, Skyship Raider. The design intent was to showcase the chaotic shifting of reality during the Phyrexian invasion, bringing together former adversaries or unlikely allies to combat a common existential threat.
The card was illustrated by artists Wisanu Tan and Johannes Voss, who utilized the set's aesthetic identity to capture the tense dynamic between Baral's calculated authoritarianism and Kari Zev's impulsive, high-energy combat style. As part of the promotional series for the expansion, the card was received well by players who appreciated the narrative depth of the team-up mechanic, which mechanically fused the signature abilities of both characters into a single, cohesive legendary creature card.
