Strange Augmentation

Description

Strange Augmentation, card number 105 in the 2016 Eldritch Moon set, is a distinct black Enchantment — Aura designed to enhance a target creature's power and toughness. Created by artist Josu Hernaiz, this foil release from the Eldritch Moon expansion captures the dark, mystical aesthetic characteristic of that era of Magic: The Gathering. As a common rarity card, it serves as a foundational element for players constructing mono-black or midrange decks seeking efficient creature enhancement. The card’s gameplay revolves around its Aura subtype, allowing it to attach to a creature and grant a base +1/+1 bonus. Its true potential emerges through the Delirium mechanic. When four or more different card types are among cards in your graveyard, the enchanted creature receives an additional +2/+2 boost, resulting in a substantial +3/+3 total increase. This conditional power makes Strange Augmentation a strategic choice for decks capable of rapidly filling their graveyard with diverse card types, such as artifacts, creatures, enchantments, and lands. Collectors and players alike appreciate the foil treatment of this card, which adds a shimmering finish to the artwork and text box, making it visually striking in a game box or collection binder. Whether you are building a graveyard synergistic strategy or simply appreciate the design of early 2010s Magic expansions, this Aura offers both mechanical depth and collectible appeal.
