What it does
Flying
Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, choose a card in your hand. That player guesses whether the card's mana value is greater than 4. If the player guessed wrong, you may cast the card without paying its mana cost.

Where it came from
Master of Predicaments was released in July 2014 as part of the Magic 2015 Core Set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, the card was designed to highlight the game's focus on high-stakes interaction, specifically through the 'riddle' mechanic that challenges opponents to guess the converted mana cost of a card revealed from the library. This set marked a transition in core set philosophy, focusing more on thematic resonance and accessible yet complex mechanics.
The artwork for this Sphinx was created by illustrator Svetlin Velinov, a long-time contributor to the game known for his polished, high-fantasy style. Velinov depicted the creature with an imposing, intellectual posture, emphasizing the Sphinx’s traditional role as a guardian of secrets and puzzles. Upon release, the card was recognized by players as a flavorful addition to blue-aligned control decks, though it was generally viewed as a niche piece for casual or Commander-focused play rather than a staple in competitive tournament formats.
