Aetherlingutility$0.25Both are blue finishers that are hard to interact with and can repeatedly dodge removal. Aetherling offers even more resilience and flexibility as a control win condition.True-Name Nemesisutility$2.56A cheap blue creature with excellent protection that often becomes very difficult to block or answer in combat. It fills a similar 'protected threat' role in blue decks.Thrun, the Last Trollutility$1.59A resilient hexproof threat that is difficult to remove and can pressure opponents over time. It is in green rather than blue, but plays the same protective creature role.Sigarda, Host of Heronsutility$0.94A large hexproof flyer that is extremely hard to answer and serves as a protected finisher. Like Benthic Giant, it asks opponents to find sweepers or edicts instead of targeted removal.Sphinx of Jwar Isleutility$0.17Another blue evasive finisher with strong protection, using shroud rather than hexproof to stay safe from targeted removal. It fills the same top-end threat slot in blue control shells.Dragonlord Ojutaiutility$0.59A blue finisher that is difficult to target once it has attacked, making it a resilient threat in control decks. It plays a similar role as a protected late-game creature.Stormsurge Krakenutility$0.48A blue creature that can be very hard to engage in combat and punishes attempts to race it. It is a sturdier midrange threat that often functions as a difficult-to-answer finisher.Fleet Swallowerfinisher$1.28A high-end blue creature threat that can dominate games if left unanswered. While it lacks hexproof, it occupies a similar expensive blue finisher slot in casual and Commander play.
