Description
Released in 2005 as part of the Ravnica: City of Guilds expansion, the Undercity Shade (card number 110) is a black uncommon creature in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by artist Dana Knutson, this foil variant carries a mana cost of four generic and one black mana, making it a strategic addition for decks focused on dark magic themes. As a Shade, it possesses the Fear mechanic, which restricts blocking to only artifact and black creatures, while its activated ability allows it to gain a temporary +1/+1 boost for a single black mana. The foil treatment enhances its visual appeal, distinguishing it from the non-foil base version. Whether you are looking to complete the Ravnica: City of Guilds set or expand your black mana collection, the Undercity Shade offers a tangible connection to this influential release. Its enduring presence in the game's lore and gameplay continues to drive interest among veteran players and new collectors alike.
