Yathan Tombguard — Steady Menace
Yathan Tombguard is a compact but tactical black creature that fits into any deck looking to pressure boards while generating card advantage. The printed menace keyword forces opponents to commit multiple blockers, and the triggered draw ability makes every counter on your creatures more valuable. This Near Mint Foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm shows clean artwork and a crisp foil finish that collectors and players will both appreciate.
Play Yathan Tombguard as a two mana threat that closes trades and fuels your hand when your countered creatures connect. The card rewards a counter strategy or any plan that places +1 counters, letting you convert combat damage into card draw at the cost of a single life each time. Practical, efficient and straightforward, it slots into aggressive midrange builds and token or +1 counter shells with minimal fuss. Add it to your deck and let it earn its keep during combat and attrition turns.
