Tormented Soul

Description

Numbered 111 in the base checklist, this Common card represents a fundamental black creature that players encounter frequently in casual and constructed play. The card depicts a Spirit with a power and toughness of 1/1, requiring just a single black mana to cast. Its primary mechanical distinction lies in its evasion ability: this creature cannot block and cannot be blocked, allowing it to attack directly or bypass opposing defensive creatures with ease. This design makes it a versatile tool for aggressive strategies that rely on consistent damage output. The flavor text accompanying the illustration reinforces the card's thematic identity, describing spirits cursed to roam the nether realms due to their bitter rage in life. Karl Kopinski’s artwork brings this spectral entity to life, capturing the eerie atmosphere characteristic of Magic: The Gathering's black mana color pie. The Magic 2013 set includes this card as number 111 in its base checklist. The card's straightforward rules text and low casting cost make it accessible to new players while retaining strategic value for veterans. Its presence in the common rarity tier ensures it is widely distributed, yet individual copies remain sought after by those dedicated to assembling full run of the M13 expansion. This card is a Common Creature — Spirit with a mana cost of {B} and power/toughness of 1/1.
