Beware the Web of Shelob!
Introducing Shelob, Child of Ungoliant, a formidable addition to your Magic deck that weaves a tapestry of terror across the battlefield. With an imposing power of 8/8, this Legendary Creature embodies both menace and strategy. Not only does Shelob come equipped with deathtouch and ward 2, ensuring that your opponents think twice before launching an attack, but her ability to generate Food tokens adds layers of gameplay depth.
