Abhorrent Oculus — Peer Into Duskmourn
Abhorrent Oculus arrives as a Mythic threat that demands careful deck construction. As a 5 5 Eye with Flying, it pressures the air and forces opponents to answer quickly. The casting restriction is meaningful; exiling six cards from your graveyard as an additional cost shapes late game decisions and invites graveyard planning. For players who run self mill or recursion, the Oculus trades card advantage for a recurring board presence through its manifest dread trigger.
The card pairs straightforward combat stats with a disruptive upkeep ability. At the beginning of each opponent s upkeep you manifest dread which skews your library into a potential face down 2 2 and a graveyard mill. That interaction fits Duskmourn s mood by turning attrition and library manipulation into a repeatable tempo tool. If you want a resilient flying threat that taxies opponents and complements graveyard strategies pick this Light Play copy and slot it where you need a payoff for long games.
