Afterlife from the Loam: Gravebound Reclamation
Afterlife from the Loam is a heavy black sorcery that converts the late game into a battlefield advantage. The card reads Delve and then lets you choose up to one creature card from each player s graveyard and put those cards onto the battlefield under your control. As an extended art Commander Tarkir print, the mise en scene emphasizes creeping grave energies and a tactile sense of board swinging potential for decks built around recursion and graveyard interaction.
Play this when you have delve fuel to reduce the cost and the board state can absorb multiple reanimated threats. The returned creatures arrive as Zombies in addition to their other types which opens efficient synergies with sacrifice outlets and Zombie tribal payoff. Experienced players will value the timing window and sequencing; this card can shift parity and recompose a stalled game into concrete tempo and inevitability. Add it to lists that plan for late game conversion of discard and mill into stable board presence.
