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 Guilds of Ravnica expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set returned players to the plane of Ravnica, a cityscape controlled by ten distinct guilds, and this card was designed as a rare creature associated with the Dimir guild, which is known for espionage, secrets, and theft. The card mechanics were specifically crafted to capture the essence of Dimir manipulation by allowing a player to steal and cast spells from an opponent's deck.
The artwork was commissioned from Igor Kieryluk, a frequent contributor to the game who is celebrated for his dark, atmospheric fantasy style. Kieryluk chose to emphasize the unsettling nature of the Dimir agent by depicting the figure amidst a shadowy, crystalline aesthetic that aligns with the guild’s signature blue and black color palette. Upon its release, the card was widely noted by competitive players for its potent ability to disrupt opponent strategies, making it a staple of mid-range decks throughout its time in the Standard rotation.
