Sarulf, Realm Eater

Description

The 2021 Kaldheim Promos release features Sarulf, Realm Eater as a rare foil card designated by the number 228p. This Magic: The Gathering trading card depicts a Legendary Creature — Wolf with a mana cost of {1}{B}{G} and a mana value of 3. The card’s ability allows players to place +1/+1 counters on Sarulf whenever an opponent’s permanent enters the graveyard from the battlefield. During the upkeep, those counters can be removed to exile other nonland permanents with a mana value less than or equal to the number of counters removed. This mechanic creates a distinct strategic identity within the game, rewarding graveyard-based strategies. Collectors value the foil finish and the promotional status of this card, which distinguishes it from the standard Kaldheim checklist. The creature’s 3/3 power and toughness provide a solid board presence, while its ability to grow stronger with each graveyard interaction offers long-term utility. The card’s design by Chris Rahn contributes to its visual distinction, though the foil treatment itself is the primary aesthetic feature for many. For those building a Magic: The Gathering collection, Sarulf, Realm Eater represents a specific moment in the Kaldheim era. The card’s unique rules text and foil variant make it a sought-after item for completists and players interested in its specific mechanical niche. Whether for competitive play or collection purposes, this card stands as a defined piece of the Kaldheim Promos set.
