Gollum's Clever Deception
Introducing Gollum, Patient Plotter, a cunning addition to your Magic: The Gathering deck from the Universes Beyond: The Lord of the Rings set. This legendary Halfling Horror is not just a creature; he embodies the essence of mischief and strategy. With a mana cost of just {1}{B}, Gollum can swiftly leave the battlefield, triggering his unique ability that tempts you to sacrifice a creature.

His ability to manipulate your graveyard and exploit creature sacrifices adds a fascinating layer to your gameplay, making him a pivotal piece in any strategy that thrives on resource management.
