Unleash Undying Minions with Wight
Wight from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms embodies the grim persistence of the undead, arriving ready to sap your opponent’s strength and bolster your own ranks. This Zombie Soldier enters the battlefield tapped, a subtle drawback offset by its potent Life Drain ability. Whenever Wight deals damage to a creature that dies that turn, you get a tapped 2/2 black Zombie token and exile the fallen foe. This mechanic ensures your board presence grows steadily, turning each skirmish into a macabre recruitment drive.
Wight’s synergy shines alongside sacrifice themes or decks running cards like Diregraf Ghoul or Death Baron, amplifying Zombie tribal strategies. Its modest 3/2 stats mean it can trade efficiently, while the token generation fuels continuous pressure without overextending. For players who appreciate incremental advantage and relentless attrition, Wight represents a reliable avenue to overwhelm opponents through sheer numbers and inevitability.
