Araumi of the Dead Tide

Description

This legendary creature belongs to the Merfolk Wizard subtype, requiring a mana cost of one generic, one blue, and one black mana to cast. With a mana value of three, it offers an efficient entry point for decks focused on blue and black color identities. The card’s primary function revolves around its ability to manipulate the graveyard. By exiling cards from your graveyard equal to the number of opponents, you can target a creature card in that same zone to gain the encore ability until the end of the turn. Encore allows you to exile the creature and pay its mana cost to create token copies that attack specific opponents, gaining haste and sacrificing themselves at the beginning of the next end step. This mechanic makes the card particularly valuable for strategies that rely on recurring threats from the graveyard. For collectors, this card represents a key component of the Commander Legends set, which was designed specifically for the Commander format. The set code CMR identifies this release, and the uncommon rarity indicates its availability within the booster packs. The artwork by Daarken brings the character to life, capturing the essence of the Merfolk Wizard archetype. Whether you are building a thematic deck around graveyard recursion or simply appreciate the strategic depth of the Commander format, this card offers a unique mechanical experience.
