Peer Into the Oculus
Abhorrent Oculus is a compact menace for control shells that value graveyard investment. Abhorrent Oculus trades a heavy casting tax for a broad late game presence; exile six cards from your graveyard to cast it and you gain a 5/5 flyer that pressures opponents from above. The manifest dread trigger at each opponent s upkeep creates persistent tempo problems and pairs naturally with cards that care about manifested or facedown creatures.
From a gameplay perspective Abhorrent Oculus reads like a tool to close out long games while denying you graveyard recursion. Use it in builds that can reliably fuel the exile cost or where the exile itself is a resource engine. The card fits Duskmourn s mood by turning graveyard investment into an eerie, airborne threat. Consider it when you want a late game finisher that complicates combat math and board advantage.
