Taigam, Sidisi's Hand provides a unique take on card advantage. Instead of the traditional draw step, it offers a way to selectively draw and fill your graveyard simultaneously. This fits thematically with the Sultai clan's mechanics in the Tarkir set, emphasizing the value of the graveyard. The third ability makes excellent use of the cards in your graveyard, allowing for targeted removal of problematic creatures. Given Taigam's role as Sidisi's trusted hand, it makes sense for him to harness the resources of the graveyard in a way that benefits his controller. The artwork by Simon Dominic likely captures the mysterious and powerful nature of this adept wizard.
