Watchful Eyes of Phyrexia
The Tainted Observer is a cunning addition to your arsenal in the Phyrexia: All Will Be One set. This Phyrexian Bird is not just another creature; with its ability to grant Toxic 1, it ensures that your enemies will be feeling the pressure as they accumulate poison counters just by facing its unyielding gaze. Flying through the battlefield, it can be a formidable aerial threat that keeps opponents on their toes. Whether you’re looking to control the board or apply some sneaky pressure, this card delivers versatility and synergy with proliferate strategies.
What truly sets the Tainted Observer apart is its triggered ability. Whenever a creature enters your battlefield under your control, you can pay 2 life to proliferate, adding even more counters to your board. This makes it a perfect companion for cards like Contagion Engine or Inexorable Tide. The combination can create a devastating cycle of adding counters, making your opponents reconsider their approach to the game. With its near-mint foil finish, this card not only shines in gameplay but is also a beautiful collector's item.
