Oracle text
You may have Sakashima the Impostor enter as a copy of any creature on the battlefield, except its name is Sakashima the Impostor, it's legendary in addition to its other types, and it has "2UU: Return Sakashima the Impostor to its owner's hand at the beginning of the next end step."
Mox strategy
Sakashima the Impostor excels as a versatile clone effect, able to copy any creature on the battlefield while retaining a unique legendary status. Best used in decks that leverage powerful creatures' abilities or enter-the-battlefield effects (ETB), it enables flexible responses and combo potential. Its ability to bounce itself back to hand for 4 mana preserves access to key creature copies or ETB triggers repeatedly. Synergizes well with creatures having strong ETB effects like Eternal Witness or high-impact utility creatures. Supports gameplay focused on adaptability, disruption, and combo by reusing or mimicking threats dynamically. Ideal for control or combo-centric blue decks in formats like Commander, Modern, and Legacy.
