Description
Diregraf Escort, card number 174, is a foundational piece of the Avacyn Restored set released in 2012. As a Common rarity card, it serves as a flexible early-game option for players building mono-green decks within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The card represents a Human Cleric with a mana cost of one green mana, making it an efficient inclusion for decks focused on creature generation and board presence. The card's primary appeal lies in its Soulbond mechanic, which allows it to pair with another unpaired creature when it enters the battlefield.

Collectors and players alike appreciate Diregraf Escort for its straightforward utility and iconic status within the set. It is often sought after by those looking to complete the full set of Avacyn Restored cards or by players who enjoy the tactical depth provided by the Soulbond mechanic. The card's design and rules text reflect the thematic elements of the Avacyn Restored expansion, contributing to its enduring popularity among Magic enthusiasts. Whether used in casual play or competitive formats, Diregraf Escort remains a versatile and iconic card for fans of the game.
