What instant-speed interaction can your opponent have in The Hobbit?
8 spells they could cast at instant speed right now.
Removal (1)
White + 1 open: attacking with a power-4+ creature can get it destroyed outright; targeted removal can be blanked by the indestructible mode.
Combat Tricks (2)
Any colors, 2 generic mana open: a blocker (or attacker) can grow by the number of creatures YOU control, mid-combat, at instant speed.
White + 2 open: removal can be dodged by bouncing the target. Late game with 5 open, a 'bad' chump-block setup may be converting into a flock of 4/4 fliers.
Counterspells (2)
White + 2 mana open: your key spell can be bounced back to hand. Bait it with a secondary threat before committing your best card.
Blue + UU open: cheap spells (mana value 2 or less) not only get countered, they gift the opponent a recruit.
Other (3)
Black + 1 open after a board trade: your dead creatures may be about to become the opponent's Food.
