Enter the Animus

The Animus is a compact engine that rewards patient pilots who build around legendary recursion. This Legendary Artifact from Universes Beyond Assassin's Creed costs {2} to cast and sits quietly until your end step where it can exile a legendary creature card from any graveyard provided it has a memory counter. The foil finish highlights the art which depicts the device used to relive echoes of the past and gives a tactile reminder that this is a tool for methodical, value-driven play.

Use The Animus to turn one beaten hero into an ongoing toolbox. Tap the artifact to make a legendary creature you control a copy of a card exiled with a memory counter until your next turn. The timing restriction means you plan ahead and sequence wisely. In Commander or tribal lists where legendary matters, The Animus doubles as both a toolbox and an answer to board attrition; slot it into decks that prize one for utility and long game inevitability.
