Giles has always been a man of many resources... Knowledge, experience, and at least a moderate amount of personal wealth. But never has his ability to utilize everything at hand been more evident than when he took on the task of rebuilding the Watcher's Council. Now spearheading an organization with worldwide ties and dozens if not hundreds of Slayers at his disposal, Giles adds a lot to your game. Effectively increasing your hand size by 1 card (usually from 5 to 6) may not seem like much, but that extra card can make a significant difference in a crucial fight or challenge.

And while Giles and Joyce have always made quite the pair, try combining this with the Joyce Summers companion card (from the initial Pergamum Prophecy set) that allows you to have 6 cards during the Draw Step, to take your hand from 5 to 7 cards. Who says you don't need parents and parental figures just because you're the savior of the world?
