Being such an imposing creature, Glissas Retriever has a bit of a target on it, but when it dies, you get to return X cards from your graveyard to your hand equal to the number of opponents with three or more poison counters on it, helping to refill your hand once it dies
Each player gets four rad counters
And oh, you can't counter her, and then you cannot kill her until I put the +2 on the stack, and it will still resolve
First Day of Class, meanwhile, is a nice budget option for when youre able to bring a lot of creatures into play at once
Sure, she works best at the helm of spell slinger builds, or decks that want to copy key creatures like Dockside Extortionist or Combat Celebrant, but those are not the only builds shes suited to
Smile at Death I see what you did there Wizards, an enchantment named Smile at Death that plays similarly to Alesha, Who Smiles at Death
