What it does
Until end of turn, gain control of target creature and it gains haste. Untap and goad that creature. (Until your next turn, that creature attacks each combat if able and attacks a player other than you if able.)
The whitest robes stain best.

Where it came from
Besmirch was released in 2016 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set Conspiracy: Take the Crown. This set was designed specifically for draft-based multiplayer play, focusing on political maneuvering and social dynamics within a game. The card itself exemplifies this 'politics' theme, allowing a player to incite chaos by gaining control of a creature and goading it, forcing it to attack someone other than the controller.
The card features illustration by Johann Bodin, whose work captures the treacherous, cloak-and-dagger atmosphere of the set's setting, Paliano. The design intent was to provide players with a tool to disrupt board states and shift alliances, which was highly praised by the community for its ability to generate memorable, unpredictable moments during casual multiplayer sessions.
