Professional Face-Breaker
Casting Cost: {2}{R}
Card Type: Creature - Human Warrior
Power/Toughness: 2/3
Card Text:

  • Menace (This creature can't be blocked except by two or more creatures.)
  • Whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a player, create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "T, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color.")
  • Sacrifice a Treasure: Exile the top card of your library. You may play that card this turn.
    Artist: Dan Scott

Analysis:

Strengths:

  1. Menace: With the Menace keyword, the Professional Face-Breaker requires at least two creatures to block it, making it harder to effectively deal with in combat.
  2. Treasure Generation: The ability to produce Treasure tokens on successful combat damage provides a means of ramping or fixing mana colors.
  3. Card Advantage: The synergy between the generated Treasures and the ability to exile and play the top card of the library can provide card advantage, especially in longer games or when more mana is available.

Weaknesses:

  1. Conditional Ability: Both of the card's abilities are reliant on successful combat damage, which can be stymied by blockers, removal, or other disruption.
  2. Exiled Card Dependency: The success of the exiled card ability is subject to the top card of the library, which can be inconsistent.

Deck Considerations:

  1. Aggro or Red-Based Midrange Decks: The card slots comfortably into aggressive strategies that aim to deal combat damage regularly.
  2. Treasure Synergy: In a deck that capitalizes on or interacts with Treasures (or artifacts), the Professional Face-Breaker can be a valuable asset.
  3. Top Deck Manipulation: Pairing with cards that manipulate the top of the library can maximize the effectiveness of the exiling ability.

Flavor and Artistic Impressions:
The title "Professional Face-Breaker" evokes an image of a skilled combatant, likely hired for his brute strength and ruthlessness. The combination of Treasure generation and the exiling ability suggests a mercenary nature, one who's not only adept at combat but also at seizing opportunities (loot) from his endeavors. The artwork by Dan Scott would likely depict this fierce nature and the gritty backdrop of the world he hails from.

Overall:
A versatile creature for its cost, the Professional Face-Breaker offers aggressive capabilities, ramp potential, and a form of card advantage. While its strengths can be conditional on the game state and the top of the library, in the right circumstances and with the right support, it can be a pivotal card in various matchups.
