Illusionist's Stratagem, Instant, designed by Svetlin Velinov first released in May, 2020 in the set Aether Revolt and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's a key card in 8 combos.
Illusionist's Stratagem would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on enter-the-battlefield triggers or creatures with powerful abilities that trigger upon being cast. Decks such as Blink or Flicker decks that aim to abuse these triggers would greatly benefit from this card. While there may be better options like Cloudshift or Ephemerate for more efficient flickering effects, Illusionist's Stratagem could still see play in decks looking for additional card draw and a bit of flexibility in their flickering strategy.

If a creature token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and will not return to the battlefield.

If you choose two target creatures and one is an illegal target as Illusionist’s Stratagem resolves, you’ll exile the other, return it, and draw a card.

You may cast Illusionist’s Stratagem without any targets if you wish to just draw a card.
