Description
Designed as a Shade Warlock, this card features a mana cost of four generic mana and one black mana, resulting in a mana value of five. Its design emphasizes the creature's formidable presence, allowing collectors to engage with a powerful tool for graveyard manipulation. As a key component of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, Author of Shadows offers a distinct mechanical identity. When this creature enters the battlefield, it exiles all opponents' graveyards, providing immediate board control. The card’s ability allows you to choose a nonland card from those exiled and cast it for as long as it remains exiled, with the added benefit of spending mana as though it were any color. This versatility makes it a compelling addition for collectors seeking to understand the evolving mechanics of the game. By focusing on the card's identity as a foil Rare from the PRM set code, collectors can appreciate the artistic and mechanical nuances Alex Brock brought to this design. Whether you are building a collection of promotional artifacts or studying the history of black mana strategies, this card represents a significant piece of the 2021 promotional landscape.
