Sin Collector enters the battlefield, strips an instant or sorcery from an opponent's hand, and leaves behind a 2/1 body — all for three mana. It's a Thoughtseize stapled to a creature, and in white-black shells that blink or reanimate it repeatedly, that effect compounds fast.

Commander is where Sin Collector does its best work — flicker engines like Brago, King Eternal or Aminatou, the Fateshifter turn a one-time discard effect into a repeatable hand-shredding loop. In Modern and Pioneer, it's too slow at three mana when dedicated discard spells cost one, so it sees essentially no competitive play there. Legacy has the same problem compounded by the format's speed. Sin Collector is a Commander card first, a casual constructed curiosity second.
