Accursed Marauder: Quick Sac, Quick Win
Accursed Marauder costs {1}{B} and arrives as a lean Zombie Warrior with a 2/1 body. When it enters the battlefield, each player sacrifices a nontoken creature, a tempo swing that can clear a boardside advantage or force a necessary retread from opponents. In practice it rewards timing and careful staging, letting you pressure a packed board while setting up your next move with disciplined disruption. The foil finish on this Modern Horizons 3 piece catches light as it moves, giving a subtle sheen that complements a strategy built around attrition and opportunistic pressure.
The flavor text hints that the Accursed are drawn to the Hekma, seeking a brief respite only to plunge back into their eternal torment. This card fits well in sacrifice or removal ecosystems, where a single ETB trigger reshapes the battlefield and keeps opponents guessing about what comes next. It’s a practical, no-nonsense option for players who value reliable disruption and a solid, game-forward body on turn two or three.
