Trespasser's Curse

Description

Among the cards released in this set is Trespasser's Curse, identified by the set code AKH and card number 112. This release features the artist David Palumbo, whose work contributes to the unique aesthetic of the Amonkhet block. Collectors often seek out specific cards from this era to complete their sets or to appreciate the individual artistic contributions within the larger collection. Trespasser's Curse functions as an Enchantment with the subtypes Aura and Curse. Its mana cost requires one generic mana and one black mana, resulting in a mana value of two. The card is designed to enchant a player, altering the flow of life totals during gameplay. The effect triggers whenever a creature controlled by the enchanted player enters the battlefield. Upon this trigger, the enchanted player loses one life, while the controller of the Aura gains one life. This dynamic creates a strategic interaction where controlling creatures can inadvertently benefit the opponent if they are the target of this card. The flavor of the card hints at the atmospheric tension within the Amonkhet setting, suggesting that even safe areas hold hidden dangers. For collectors of Magic: The Gathering, this card represents a piece of the 2017 Amonkhet release. Whether you are building a collection of specific card numbers or focusing on the broader themes of the set, Trespasser's Curse offers a tangible connection to this period in the game's history. The combination of its mechanical effect and the artistic style of David Palumbo makes it a notable entry for enthusiasts of the format.
