Buried Alive: Graveyard Setup
Buried Alive costs {2}{B} and fits into a strategy that uses the graveyard as a resource. The spell lets you search your library for up to three creature cards and put them into your graveyard, then shuffle. That setup power lets you load your yard with threats for later reanimation or recursion without tipping your hand early. In Modern Horizons 3 this type of tool shines in decks built around graveyard interaction, offering reliable ways to assemble your plan ahead of combat. With careful timing you can set the pace of the game by determining which creatures are ready when you need them.
From a practical standpoint Buried Alive gives you control of your board state and your draws. It is best used when you have a follow up spell that can bring those creatures back or exploit their presence in the grave. The card adds depth to a deck by turning a library search into a tactical setup move, making it easier to pressure foes or stabilize late. The flavor of the card hints at a methodical digging into earth to unearth a dangerous crew, mirroring a graveyard oriented approach that rewards planning and precision.
