Nightblade Brigade: Quietly Lethal
Nightblade Brigade from Tarkir Dragonstorm is a compact toolbox in a Near Mint Foil finish that rewards calculated aggression. The card plays as a two drop that trades efficiently thanks to deathtouch while mobilize 1 provides a token engine that pressures blockers and chips life totals. The foil treatment sharpens the moonlit artwork and makes the card an appealing pick for collectors and sideboard options alike.
In practical play the Brigade excels as a tempo piece that also tutors the top of your deck with surveil 1 when it enters. Use it to set up graveyard synergies or prune dead draws while deploying an attacking 1 1 token each time it swings. This card reads well in sacrifice shells, aggressive black decks, and builds that value incremental advantage over single exchanges. Add it to your deck for consistent utility and flavorful Tarkir play patterns.
