The Creation of Avacyn

Step into the lore heavy plane of Avacyn with this Modern Horizons 3 Saga. The Light Play Foil treatment gives the artwork a cool, reflective finish that rewards careful handling on the table. With a mana cost of {1}{B}{B}, this enchantment offers a measured, tempo friendly path that grows across three chapters, rewarding patience and precise timing as the saga unfolds.

The card’s printed behavior creates a layered play pattern. It begins by letting you search your library for a card, exile it face down, then shuffle. On the next turn, you turn the exiled card face up; if it’s a creature, you lose life equal to its mana value. You may put the exiled card onto the battlefield if it’s a creature, or else put it into its owner's hand. This design invites deliberate sequencing, combining exile and late game payoff in a compact package.
