Advisor is a creature class that first appeared in Portal Three Kingdoms. Retroactively, Riven Turnbull and Tobias Andrion from Legends were the first cards with the type.
Description
Advisors are tacticians, courtiers, ministers, and others known for their wisdom. Bureaucrats (once a separate class) are also ranked as advisors. Advisors often serve roles in government, where they can obtain significant personal power by manipulating those above and below them. Advisors span all five colors, though a majority are white. From the name, one might guess that an advisor is never in direct command, but rather stands at the side of authority. This is untrue. Teysa Karlov, Augustin IV, and Gaddock Teeg are all free agents and "advise" no one.
In the Grand Creature Type Update the subtypes Tactician (Seasoned Tactician) and Bureaucrat (Aysen Bureaucrats) were incorporated into the Advisor class.
Persistent Petitioners are "relentless" Advisors.
