March of Wretched Sorrow

Description

Released in 2022 as part of the Magic Online Promos series, this Magic: The Gathering trading card game card features the spell March of Wretched Sorrow. Identified by card number 97963 and marked with the PRM set code, this foil rarity version offers a distinct visual appeal for collectors of digital platform exclusives. The card is classified as a black instant with a mana value of one, designed to provide strategic flexibility in gameplay. The spell allows players to exile any number of black cards from their hand as an additional cost, reducing the total mana expense by two for each card sacrificed. In return, the caster deals damage equal to the value X to a target creature or planeswalker while gaining an equal amount of life. This interaction creates a dynamic exchange between resource management and board impact, a core tenet of the Magic: The Gathering experience. The foil finish adds a tactile and visual layer to the card, making it a desirable addition to collections focused on promotional releases. Tyler Jacobson provided the artistic design for this release, contributing to the visual identity of the 2022 promotional cycle. Collectors often seek out these specific numbered cards to complete their holdings of the Magic Online Promos subset. The combination of the rare treatment, the specific card number, and the unique mechanics makes this piece a notable entry for enthusiasts of the format.
