Quiet Conduit of Pain
Blood Artist is a concise engine for any black deck that wants incremental advantage from trading creatures. At {1}{B} the creature slots into aggressive sacrifice builds, Aristocrat shells, and midrange lists as a repeatable life-swing effect. The printed card text reads exactly as players expect: whenever this creature or another creature dies, target player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life, turning every board interaction into a resource swing that taxes opponents and stabilizes your life total.
The card’s 0/1 body keeps it cheap and easy to recur or protect, and its Vampire subtype fits tribal synergies on Innistrad without demanding a specific archetype. Use Blood Artist to close out games with attrition, amplify token strategies, or pair with targeted removal to turn your trades into steady drains. Practical, efficient, and slyly versatile, this Light Play copy from Innistrad Remastered is ready to slot into casual and competitive lists alike.
