📖 How to build Y'shtola, Night's Blessed
Y'shtola, Night's Blessed is a four-mana Esper legendary with vigilance, so it can attack and still stay back to block. Its engine is noncreature spells: each one with mana value 3 or greater deals 2 damage to each opponent and gains you 2 life. At each end step, if any player lost 4 or more life that turn, you draw a card.
Build around noncreature spells costing 3 or more to keep the drain trigger firing. Rhystic Study and Generous Gift from the list are examples that qualify. Cheaper interaction such as Counterspell, Negate, and Demonic Tutor can still support the plan, but only spells with mana value 3 or greater trigger the
