About Innocent Bystander
Innocent Bystander, Creature — goblin citizen, designed by Warren Mahy first released in Jan, 2024 in the set Murders at Karlov Manor.
Innocent Bystander would fit well in a red aggro or midrange deck that leverages damage-based strategies, as its ability to investigate upon receiving 3 or more damage can provide card advantage through Clue tokens. However, there are potentially better options like Gutterbones or Falkenrath Marauders, which offer more consistent value or aggressive stats for a similar mana cost. While Innocent Bystander can see play in casual formats or specific synergies, it may not be the most competitive choice in optimized decks, where more impactful creatures or card draw options are preferred.
