Nethergoyf from Modern Horizons 3 offers a chilling twist on the classic Lhurgoyf design. This light play foil showcases a fearsome creature, whose power is equal to the number of card types among cards in your graveyard and whose toughness is that number plus one. In practical terms, the more card types you reveal in the graveyard, the bigger Nethergoyf becomes, rewarding careful build planning and graveyard manipulation. The foil finish catches the light from different angles, highlighting the creature's imposing form as it prowls the battlefield.
Nethergoyf also features an escape ability that can swing games after it lands. The escape cost is two generic and one black, and it lets you exile any number of other cards from your graveyard that collectively contain four or more card types. If you pay the escape cost, you may cast Nethergoyf from your graveyard for its escape cost, giving you a late game recast option and a threat that scales with the state of your graveyard. This card slots into graveyard driven decks that value card type diversity and timing, and the foil treatment in Modern Horizons 3 reinforces its mythic presence on the table.
