What it does
Flying
Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, look at the top three cards of that player's library, exile one of them face down, then put the rest into their graveyard. You may cast that card for as long as it remains exiled, and mana of any type can be spent to cast that spell.

Where it came from
Thief of Sanity was released in 2018 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set Guilds of Ravnica. Designed for the Dimir guild, the card represents the faction's focus on information theft, surveillance, and psychological manipulation within the cityscape of Ravnica. The card's mechanics were intentionally crafted to reflect the Dimir's signature ability to sabotage opponents by stealing their resources directly from their library.
The artwork was illustrated by Svetlin Velinov, a veteran artist for the game known for his sharp, evocative character designs. Velinov aimed to capture the essence of a Dimir operative, emphasizing a spectral, encroaching presence that embodies the card's theme of memory loss and mental intrusion. Upon its release, the card was well-received by players for its high-risk, high-reward nature, quickly becoming a staple in competitive and casual play formats that emphasize blue and black mana strategies.
