What it does
Flying
When this creature enters, look at target opponent's hand. You may exile a nonland card from it. For as long as that card remains exiled, its owner may play it. A spell cast this way costs 2 generic mana more to cast.

Where it came from
The Elite Spellbinder was introduced in the 2021 Magic: The Gathering set Strixhaven: School of Mages, serving as a signature creature for the Silverquill college. The card design focuses on the theme of academic debate and tactical disruption, represented mechanically by its ability to exile an opponent's card and increase its casting cost, effectively taxing their resources.
The promotional version, designated as number 17p, features distinctive artwork by Ryan Pancoast. Known for his work in fantasy illustration, Pancoast aimed to capture the essence of a scholarly duelist, blending formal academic attire with the high-fantasy aesthetic of the game. Upon its release, the card was widely received by competitive players for its utility in disrupting opponent strategies, becoming a staple in various formats.
