Foreboding Steamboat — Ferry of the Forsaken

Foreboding Steamboat is a deliberate and cold control piece for graveyard and resource interrogation in black decks. The enter the battlefield trigger forces a choice that can strip opponents of key attackers or sacrifice your own fodder for later value. Its attacks are methodical; each strike returns one of the exiled cards to its owner graveyard and pings the table with an investigate token, creating steady card advantage and synergies with sac outlets.
Play it where removal timing and board composition matter. Crew 2 keeps it accessible to token and low cost aggressive builds while its 5 7 body provides incidental defense once crewed. Against opponents who rely on a few resilient creatures the exile effect buys you breathing room and converts persistent threats into repeatable value over several turns.
