Blasphemous Edict — Exacting Sacrifice
Blasphemous Edict is a compact, brutalboard answer from the Foundations set that reads like a dark bargain you do not make lightly. The card lets you pay {B} instead of its full cost when there are thirteen or more creatures on the battlefield, turning a heavy mana investment into a one black mana toggle against a crowded board. As printed, each player sacrifices thirteen creatures of their choice, so the card resolves as a symmetrical purge that punishes wide token strategies and forces difficult sequencing choices in multiplayer formats.
This Near Mint Foil copy preserves the set art and the crisp text for play and collection alike. In a Commander pod thirteen creatures is a reachable threshold; use Blasphemous Edict to reset the board when tokens, emblems, or swarm decks threaten to overwhelm you. Practical players will slot it as a secondary board wipe, as a deterrent in sideboards, or as a political tool to steer combat and targets. Add this foil to your collection and keep a clean answer ready for when the board exceeds the limits you are willing to tolerate.
