The Raven Man

Description

The Raven Man stands as a distinct presence within the Dominaria United expansion, released in 2022 under the DMU set code. As card number 289 in the series, this foil rare brings a legendary Human Wizard to the table with a mana cost of {1}{B} and a mana value of 2. Designed by artist David Curtis, the card’s foil finish adds a premium tactile element that collectors appreciate for its visual depth and shimmering quality during play. Mechanically, The Raven Man offers intriguing strategic possibilities centered around discarding cards. At the beginning of each end step, if a player discarded a card during that turn, the controller creates a 1/1 black Bird creature token. This token possesses flying and carries a restriction that prevents it from blocking, adding a layer of tactical decision-making to the game. Additionally, the card features a sorcery-activated ability requiring {3}{B} and the tap symbol, allowing the player to force each opponent to discard a card. This combination of token generation and card disadvantage for opponents makes it a versatile piece for any Magic: The Gathering collection. For investors and hobbyists alike, foil cards from this era are sought after for their durability and aesthetic appeal. The Raven Man’s unique rules text and legendary status ensure it remains a recognizable and desirable addition to any Dominaria United set completion. Whether you are building a specific deck or simply expanding your library with high-quality foils, this card represents a solid piece of modern Magic history.
