The Arashin War Beast (55741) is a foil promo card from the 2015 Magic Online Promos set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by Eric Deschamps, this Uncommon creature carries a mana cost of {5}{G}{G} and functions as a 6/6 Beast. Its distinct game text allows players to manifest the top card of their library whenever it deals combat damage to one or more blocking creatures. This mechanic introduces a strategic layer where players can secretly place cards onto the battlefield as 2/2 creatures, revealing them later if they are creature cards. As part of the Magic Online Promos series, this card represents a specific era of digital distribution within the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem.

Understanding the card's mechanics and its place in the 2015 promotional calendar provides context for its collection value. The combination of its high mana value, substantial power and toughness, and the unique manifest effect makes it a notable entry for players who appreciate intricate board states.
