The take
Solid card advantage engine for two mana, but calling it the next Esper Sentinel is premature, and Orcish Bowmasters says hello.
Two mana for a recurring draw-discard-token engine, priced at 23.23 dollars before the set has even hit shelves.

The Queen of Dale Rulings
- Jun 29, 2026
If a noncreature spell was already cast by an opponent the turn The Queen of Dale enters, that opponent already cast their first noncreature spell this turn, and The Queen of Dale's ability won't trigger for that opponent that turn.
- Jun 29, 2026
Once a spell or ability that causes you to recruit begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Any responses made to the spell or ability must be made before you draw, discard, and potentially create a token.
