About Unexpected Request

Unexpected Request, Sorcery, designed by Ignatius Budi first released in May, 2025 in the set Final Fantasy. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

Unexpected Request would be a valuable addition to a red aggressive deck looking to gain tempo and swing in for damage quickly, as it allows for a burst of aggression by stealing an opponent's creature, granting it haste, and potentially equipping it for added oomph. However, the card's effectiveness would depend on the presence of valuable Equipment in the deck. While it is a situational card, there are stronger options like Act of Treason or Threaten that provide similar effects at a lower cost, making Unexpected Request less likely to see consistent play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.
