Blood Tithe Matron
Kalastria Highborn from the Foundations set is a compact engine for attrition and life swing. This 2 2 Vampire Shaman rewards board trades by converting deaths into incremental advantage. Whenever Kalastria Highborn or another Vampire you control dies you may pay {B}. If you do target player loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. That ability closes out races and helps stabilize against wider decks while slotting neatly into both aggressive and midrange vampire shells.
The card feels at home in any graveyard focused deck. Its printed ability encourages careful sequencing and makes sacrifice triggers and combat math matter. The artwork underscores the card identity with a poised figure commanding a trailing host, which matches how the card functions in play as a steady source of drain. Add Kalastria Highborn to decks that value incremental life swing and repeatable value.
