Emperor of Bones Borderless Graveyard Regent
Emperor of Bones Borderless brings a compact graveyard oriented tool to your Modern Horizons 3 collection. For {1}{B}, you summon a 2/2 Skeleton Noble that starts a game plan built around exile and growth. Its first ability triggers at the beginning of combat on your turn, letting you exile up to one target card from a graveyard, slowing an opponent while feeding your own strategies. The Adapt 2 ability adds a reliable pump that scales with the game state, giving you a path to push through stalled boards.
When one or more +1/+1 counters are placed on Emperor of Bones, you get a powerful interaction: you can bring back a creature card exiled with Emperor of Bones onto the battlefield under your control with a +1/+1 counter on it. It gains haste, but you must sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step. This creates a tempo friendly loop that rewards careful timing and planning, especially in decks that exploit graveyard cards that survive exile.
