Orochi Soul-Reaver: Strike from the Shadows
Orochi Soul-Reaver is a focused midrange threat that rewards careful attack sequencing and evasive plays. As a five black mana creature with Ninjutsu priced at 3{B}, it lets you sneak into combat after a cheap attacker hits. The foil extended art shows the snake ninja in mid grapple which matches the card text that triggers whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a player. When that trigger resolves you get a Treasure token and you manifest the top card of the damaged player s library which provides both ramp and hidden selection for later turns.
Practical in a Commander shell built around combat triggers and value generation, Orochi Soul-Reaver fits where you want incremental advantage and card advantage hidden in plain sight. The creature type combination of Snake Ninja Rogue rewards synergy with ninjutsu enablers, sacrifice outlets and Treasure synergies while the 5 4 body lets it trade with mid sized blockers when necessary. This Near Mint foil English print from Commander Outlaws of Thunder Junction is aimed at players who want a playable commander or a strong addition to a multiplayer deck.
