Demonlord of Ashmouth

Description

The Demonlord of Ashmouth foil card from Magic: The Gathering's 2012 Avacyn Restored set stands as a formidable presence in the black mana color pie. As card number 96 in the Avacyn Restored series, this rare creature embodies the dark themes central to the set's narrative. The card is illustrated by artist Lucas Graciano, bringing a distinct visual style to this demonic entity. As a Creature — Demon with a mana cost of {2}{B}{B} and a mana value of 4, this card demands strategic consideration during gameplay. With a power and toughness of 5/4, it offers significant impact on the battlefield. The card possesses the flying ability, allowing it to evade most ground-based defenses. Its most compelling feature, however, is the undying mechanic. When this creature enters the battlefield, it forces the player to sacrifice another creature or exile it. Once on the field, if the Demonlord dies without +1/+1 counters, it returns to the battlefield under its owner's control with a +1/+1 counter. This recursive nature makes it a persistent threat that can outlast many opposing strategies. The undying ability ensures that even after being removed from play, it can reenter the fight, potentially growing stronger with each cycle. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards value this card for its unique mechanics and the foil treatment. This foil version adds a layer of prestige to any collection. Whether you are a seasoned player looking to build a deck around persistent threats or a collector seeking rare cards from this era, the Demonlord of Ashmouth offers both gameplay utility and aesthetic appeal.
