Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools

Description

Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools stands as a formidable presence in the Magic: The Gathering Commander Legends set, released in 2020. As card number 512, this mythic rare legendary planeswalker introduces the Szat subtype to the game, bringing a unique strategic depth to tabletop play. The card features a mana cost of {4}{B}, requiring five mana to cast, and begins with four loyalty counters, establishing it as a durable centerpiece for any black-aligned deck. What distinguishes this card is its dual nature: it can serve as a commander in addition to its standard planeswalker role, thanks to the partner ability. This flexibility allows players to build around its specific mechanics more effectively. The +2 ability creates two 0/1 black Thrull creature tokens, providing immediate board presence. The +1 ability offers card advantage by allowing the sacrifice of another creature or planeswalker to draw cards, with an additional draw if the sacrificed permanent was a commander. The card’s most impactful ability, the -10 loyalty effect, allows the controller to gain control of all commanders and put all commanders from the command zone onto the battlefield. This makes Tevesh Szat a pivotal figure in multiplayer formats, where controlling the central conflict often determines the outcome. For collectors of Magic: The Gathering, adding this mythic rare card to a collection represents an investment in both aesthetic design by Chris Rallis and mechanical innovation. It remains a sought-after piece for those who appreciate the strategic complexity and narrative weight of the Szat planeswalker lineage.
