Champion of the Perished

Description

The Champion of the Perished is a distinctive Rare creature card from Magic: The Gathering's 2021 Innistrad: Midnight Hunt expansion. Printed with a shimmering foil finish, card number 385 in the set, this Zombie is a favorite among collectors who appreciate both aesthetic appeal and mechanical depth. From a gameplay perspective, the Champion of the Perished offers a straightforward yet powerful ability for black-aligned strategies. As a one-mana Creature — Zombie, it serves as an efficient early-game presence. Its key trait lies in its triggered ability: whenever another Zombie you control enters the battlefield, this creature gains a +1/+1 counter. This synergy encourages players to build decks centered around Zombie swarms, allowing the Champion to grow significantly in power and toughness as the game progresses. For collectors, the foil treatment adds a layer of visual interest that elevates the card beyond its functional role in the game. The combination of its low mana cost, thematic subtype, and scalable power makes it a versatile asset in Constructed formats and a fun option for casual play. Whether you are looking to complete the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt set or add a potent Zombie to your collection, this card represents a compelling intersection of art, mechanics, and collectibility.
