Afterlife from the Loam — Graveborn Retrieval
Afterlife from the Loam is a practical reanimation spell that leverages Delve to reach deep into your graveyard and onto the battlefield. Cast it when you have fuel in exile and you can pull a creature from each opponent as well as your own plan. The returned creatures enter as Zombies in addition to their other types which creates useful synergy with sacrifice outlets and effects that care about creature type.
This Extended Art print fits Commander decks that plan long games and graveyard interaction. The card rewards careful sequencing and resource management since Delve reduces the casting cost and the mass reanimation bypasses typical single target answers. Use it to rebuild after a board wipe or to convert several small threats into immediate board presence. Consider pairing it with tutors and graveyard accelerants to maximize value.
