Vesuvan Doppelganger, Creature — shapeshifter, designed by Quinton Hoover first released in Aug, 1993 in the set Limited Edition Alpha and was printed exactly in 12 different ways.
A deck that focuses on adapting to various board states and leveraging powerful creature abilities would benefit from including Vesuvan Doppelganger, as it provides versatility and the potential to mimic key threats or utility creatures. While Vesuvan Doppelganger offers flexibility, some players may prefer cards like Clever Impersonator or Phyrexian Metamorph for their ability to copy any nonland permanent, offering broader utility in more situations. Whether Vesuvan Doppelganger sees play depends on the specific strategy and meta, but its unique ability to continuously adapt to the battlefield can make it a valuable inclusion in certain decks.
