Description
Increasing Ambition, card number 69 from the 2012 Dark Ascension expansion, is a distinct black sorcery in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by Volkan Baǵa, this rare card offers versatile library manipulation that shifts based on where it is cast from. When played from the hand, it allows you to search your library for a single card and add it to your hand, followed by shuffling. However, its true utility shines through its flashback cost of {7}{B}, which permits casting the spell directly from the graveyard. In this scenario, the effect doubles, letting you search for two cards instead of one. This mechanic makes Increasing Ambition a strategic tool for deck builders seeking consistency and resource advantage. Whether you are building a competitive deck or assembling a comprehensive collection of Magic: The Gathering cards, Increasing Ambition represents a solid addition to any library. The card's black mana identity and sorcery type line fit seamlessly into various control or midrange strategies, offering players a reliable way to draw into key pieces during gameplay.
