Rise of the Dark Lord
Step into the shadows with Sauron, the Necromancer, a formidable Legendary Creature that embodies the very essence of dread. At a cost of {3}{B}{B}, this Avatar Horror wields a menacing presence on the battlefield, ready to strike fear into the hearts of your opponents. With the ability to exile a creature from your graveyard upon attacking, Sauron can create a ghostly 3/3 Wraith token that not only adds to your board presence but also comes with the Menace keyword, ensuring that your foes will find it hard to block.
Utilizing Sauron's power in a deck can lead to powerful synergies. Pair him with cards like Reanimate or Animate Dead to bring back your strongest creatures and overwhelm your opponent. This card fits seamlessly into any black-centric strategy focused on recursion and aggression, making it a staple for those who revel in the darker arts of Magic. Let the necromancer lead you to victory!
