Smile at Death — Gravebound Reprieve
Smile at Death is a tight, utility enchantment that rewards patient pilots and graveyard synergies. This borderless near mint foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm lets you recur up to two low power creatures at the beginning of your upkeep, then immediately invests them with +1/+1 counters. It reads like a compact engine piece for token builds and value recursion decks, and the artwork frames the effect in a clear, ritualistic way that reads well at the table.
Play it in midrange shells that want incremental board presence, white blink or sacrifice decks that can reuse death triggers, or as a slow but steady answer to attrition. The recurring creatures come back ready to interact and grow, so pairing this card with sac outlets or anthem effects increases its ceiling. Condition near mint and foil treatment make this a collectible playpiece for a Tarkir Dragonstorm collection and a reliable inclusion when you need repeatable, predictable recursion.
