Rot Farm Mortipede

Description

The Rot Farm Mortipede stands out as a distinct entry in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, specifically within the 2024 Murders at Karlov Manor set. Identified as card number 102, this common creature card brings a thematic element of necromancy and insectoid horror to the Golgari swarm archetype. Designed by artist Loïc Canavaggia, the card features a mana cost of {3}{B} and serves as a 3/4 Creature — Insect that interacts dynamically with the graveyard. For collectors and strategists alike, the Rot Farm Mortipede offers unique gameplay mechanics. Whenever one or more creature cards leave your graveyard, this creature gains +1/+0 power, along with the menace and lifelink keywords until the end of turn. This ability makes it a compelling choice for decks focused on graveyard synergy and temporary combat advantages. The flavor text hints at the dark, bureaucratic horror of the set, noting how unclaimed bodies are transferred for "recycling." Including this card in your Magic: The Gathering collection adds a piece of the Murders at Karlov Manor narrative. Whether you are building a thematic deck or expanding your library of common creatures, the Rot Farm Mortipede provides both aesthetic appeal and mechanical depth. It represents a key component for enthusiasts of the Black mana color and graveyard-based strategies.
