Obosh, the Preypiercer

Description

Obosh, the Preypiercer stands as a distinctive entry within the Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths Promos set, released by Wizards of the Coast in 2020. Classified as a Legendary Creature — Hellion Horror, this card is identified by the set code PIKO and card number 228p. The card’s gameplay value is defined by its dual abilities, which make it a strategic asset for players. As a Companion, it allows you to start your deck with only cards that have odd mana values and land cards. If chosen as your companion, you can put it into your hand from outside the game for {3} as a sorcery. This mechanic encourages deck construction around odd-cost spells, creating a unique playstyle that distinguishes it from other creatures in the format. Additionally, Obosh provides a powerful damage boost. If a source you control with an odd mana value would deal damage to a permanent or player, it deals double that damage instead. This synergy makes it a compelling choice for collectors seeking cards that offer both narrative depth and mechanical innovation. For collectors, this promo card represents a piece of the Ikoria expansion's legacy. Its rarity as a Rare promotional item adds to its desirability among those who complete sets or seek out specific mechanics. The combination of its Hellion Horror subtype and its damage amplification effect makes it a notable figure in the Magic: The Gathering card pool. Whether you are building a deck around odd mana values or simply appreciating the art and lore, Obosh offers a unique collector experience.
