Rest in Peace, Gain Some Life
Laid to Rest is an uncommon gem from the Innistrad: Crimson Vow set, perfectly blending the themes of loss and renewal in one powerful enchantment. For a mere {3}{G}, you can tap into its potential to draw cards whenever a Human you control meets its end. This ability not only keeps your hand full but also rewards you for strategic sacrifices, enhancing your board presence. The synergy with cards like Reclamation Sage or Winding Way allows you to manipulate your graveyard and your draws, ensuring that your strategy is both versatile and effective.
Vesna, Dawnheart witch, reminds us that every loss has its gains. Laid to Rest also provides a life boost when a creature with a +1/+1 counter bites the dust, allowing you to stretch your resilience through the game. This double-edged sword of resource management ensures you maintain a strong foothold in the game while keeping your opponents on their toes. Pair it with card-drawing spells or +1/+1 counter generators like Hardened Scales for an unstoppable engine that keeps your game thriving.
