Description
The 2013 Magic: The Gathering Dragon's Maze foil card #27, Pontiff of Blight, stands as a formidable presence in the Commander format. This Rare Creature — Zombie Cleric carries a mana cost of {4}{B}{B} and boasts a durable 2/7 body, making it a resilient threat on the battlefield. The card is distinguished by its foil finish, adding a layer of visual appeal for TCG enthusiasts who appreciate the shimmering treatment on high-rarity cards.

For collectors, this card represents a key piece of the Dragon's Maze set, which expanded the Magic story with intricate mechanics and deep strategic interactions. As a single-black card, Pontiff of Blight is easily integrated into mono-black decks or serves as a powerful splash in multi-color strategies. Its ability to generate life while applying pressure to opponents makes it a versatile addition to any library. The card’s design and mechanics reflect the innovative spirit of the 2013 release, offering collectors and players alike a memorable piece of Magic history. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a personal collection of Rare cards from the Dragon's Maze era, Pontiff of Blight delivers on both thematic and mechanical promise.
