Veil for Your Clan
Cover of Darkness is a compact, efficient taxon tool that rewards deliberate deckbuilding. At {1}{B} this rare enchantment asks you to name a creature type as it enters the battlefield and then grants that tribe fear. In play, it turns favored attackers into evasive threats that skirt most blockers, which can close races, enable commander damage, or clear the way for synergy engines that care about combat damage.
From a strategic perspective the card excels in tribal shells and midrange decks that can present consistent threats of the chosen type. Cover of Darkness does not win games by itself. It amplifies what you already do. Pair it with creatures that already impact the board when they connect and you gain incremental advantage that opponents struggle to answer. Consider it a quiet instrument of tempo and inevitability. Add one to your list and test how often a single word changes combat math. Buy or play depending on your needs.
