Unleash the Watchful Abhorrent Oculus
The Abhorrent Oculus stands as a formidable presence within Duskmourn: House of Horror, commanding attention with its unsettling, hovering form and strategic versatility. For the cost of just {2}{U} and exiling six cards from your graveyard, it takes flight as a 5/5 Eye creature, demanding respect in the air while imposing a taxing additional cost that rewards graveyard management. Its flying ability and considerable stats make it a potent threat against opponents relying on ground forces.
More than just raw power, Abhorrent Oculus leverages a distinctive mechanic—manifesting dread at the start of each opponent’s upkeep. This ability forces opponents to face unknown threats, manifesting cards face down as 2/2 creatures, which can turn the tide with the right timing. Such capacity for board presence control and graveyard interaction signals a calculated approach favored in controlling blue decks, offering opportunities to balance board state while applying pressure.
