wish card mtg Boon of the Wish-Giver [Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths] Exile Cunning Wish. MtG Adventures in the Forgotten

It lets us both shortcut to expensive effects like Bone Miser and Skirge Familiar or rebuild with them after a board wipe, when our other synergies might be temporarily turned off

That player discards two cards

Doctor Doom allows Connive to benefit you no matter the outcome: when you discard a land card, each opponent takes 2 damage, and if it's a nonland card, you still place a +1/+1 counter on the creature that Connived

Then whenever it attacks, you can bounce another creature you control, and if you elect to do that, it's unblockable

In decks absolutely swimming in card advantage and are slowed down only by mana, this alternate cost is a big deal
