Army of the Damned

Description

The 2016 Commander C16 release of Army of the Damned is a powerful black Sorcery featuring a 13-token Zombie creation effect and an 8-mana Flashback. As a Mythic Rare card numbered 105 in the Commander set, it serves as a pivotal engine for decks built around graveyard recursion and token swarms. The card’s design emphasizes high-impact utility, allowing players to flood the board with thirteen tapped 2/2 black Zombie creature tokens for a mana cost of {5}{B}{B}{B}. What makes this card particularly valuable to collectors and players alike is its Flashback ability. For an additional {7}{B}{B}{B}, players may cast the spell from their graveyard, exiling it afterward. This dual-use mechanic ensures that Army of the Damned remains relevant even after its initial cast, providing a second chance to generate an army when resources are scarce. The flavor text, "Sometimes death comes knocking. Sometimes it tears down the walls," perfectly encapsulates the aggressive nature of the card’s effect. Created by artist Ryan Pancoast, this edition is highly sought after by Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts who appreciate the strategic depth of the Commander format. The card’s versatility allows it to fit into various black-based archetypes, making it a versatile addition to any collection. Whether you are building a competitive deck or simply appreciating the intricate design of the Commander set, Army of the Damned stands out as a key component for those looking to dominate the battlefield with overwhelming force.
