Drain with Dignity
Crypt Ghast rewards disciplined mana play. Crypt Ghast is a 2/2 Spirit for {3}{B} that brings Extort to the table and converts each tapped Swamp into extra black mana. Leave it untapped as a tax collector for opponents and expect steady incremental advantage as games stretch long. This anime borderless foil captures the card art sharply while preserving every functional detail that matters at the table.
In practice Crypt Ghast fits cleanly into mono black ramp or drain shells where you already run multiple Swamps and ways to untap lands. Extort pressures opponents every turn while the extra {B} smooths casting sequences and fuels late game closes. The print here is from Ravnica Remastered and reads exactly as on the card so you can slot it into decks without second guessing wording or interaction timing.
