Sidisi, Regent of the Mire — Command the Grave
Sidisi, Regent of the Mire brings a measured, utility driven edge to graveyard strategies. This Light Play Foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm represents a compact commander or sideboard threat. At {1}{B} you get a 1 3 body that demands creatures as resources rather than relying on brute force. The artwork shows Sidisi entwined with serpentine minions emerging from the murk, and the foil finish highlights the spectral glow that signals recursive plays.
Play Sidisi when you want consistent recursion without overextending. The tap ability lets you sacrifice a creature with mana value X other than Sidisi to return a target creature card with mana value X plus 1 from your graveyard to the battlefield. Use lower cost fodder to rebuild a larger threat or recover value creatures after a board wipe. Practical for dredge, aristocrat, and midrange builds, Sidisi reads like an engine card that rewards sequencing and careful mana planning more than raw card advantage. Consider including cheap token producers and sacrifice outlets to get the most from her ability.
