Shambling Cie'th

Description

Among the diverse roster of creatures is Shambling Cie'th, card number 117, an Uncommon Mutant Horror that captures the eerie essence of Final Fantasy's undead antagonists. This card appeals to collectors who appreciate the intersection of these two major franchises, offering a tangible piece of gaming history that bridges decades of pop culture. Designed by artist Nottsuo, this card represents a specific entry in the Final Fantasy subset, identified by the set code FIN. As a black-bordered creature with a mana value of three, it features a mana cost of two generic mana and one black mana. The card's type line identifies it as a Creature — Mutant Horror, with power and toughness stats of 3/3. Its design incorporates flavor text that alludes to the lore of Cie'th being damned to wander the world, adding narrative depth for fans of the source material. From a gameplay perspective, Shambling Cie'th offers a distinct mechanical identity within the Magic: The Gathering framework. It enters the battlefield tapped, which can impact early-game tempo, but provides a recurring value engine. When you cast a noncreature spell, you may pay one black mana to return this card from your graveyard to your hand. This ability allows players to reuse the creature's presence, making it a resilient asset in decks that prioritize spell density. The card's rules text is paraphrased here to explain its function without reproducing the official text box verbatim. For collectors, this product serves as a key identifier for enthusiasts of the Final Fantasy theme within Magic: The Gathering. The Shambling Cie'th card is not graded or authenticated by any external body, nor does it feature serial numbering or special foil treatments in its standard print run. It is a standard Uncommon rarity card, making it accessible for set completionists and TCG hobbyists alike. Whether you are building a thematic collection or simply expanding your library with versatile creatures, this card represents a solid addition to any Magic: The Gathering enthusiast's catalog.
