Tithing Blade (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Heavy Play Foil

Cut the Offerings

Tithing Blade gives you a concise disruption tool that trades a single casting for immediate board pressure. When Tithing Blade enters the battlefield each opponent sacrifices a creature, which makes it efficient against wide token boards and midrange creatures. The card reads cleanly into black control decks where removal and tempo matter; cast it for {1}{B}, resolve the trigger and shift the battlefield balance without overcommitting mana.

The foil treatment on this Heavy Play copy highlights the blade and its ritual bladework while the craft mechanic opens a late game plan. Craft with creature 4{B} lets you exile this artifact and another creature you control or a creature card from your graveyard to return the card transformed under your control. That interaction provides a repeatable threat engine once you have creatures to pay with or a graveyard to fuel. Practical and focused, Tithing Blade is a compact piece of utility that finds a place in grindy black builds and toolbox artifact shells.
