Product Overview

Description

The Crow of Dark Tidings stands as a distinct entry within the Shadows over Innistrad expansion, released by Wizards of the Coast in 2016. Catalogued as card number 105, this foil version of the common rarity card appeals to collectors who appreciate the intricate art and thematic depth of the Innistrad block. As a Zombie Bird creature, it bridges two iconic creature types within the Magic: The Gathering universe, offering a unique mechanical identity that resonates with fans of the game's horror-inspired lore. Mechanically, the card operates with a mana cost of {2}{B}, placing it firmly in the black mana color identity. Its primary function revolves around graveyard interaction, a cornerstone strategy in many competitive and casual formats. When the creature enters the battlefield or dies, it triggers an effect that mills two cards from the top of the controller's library. This ability to manipulate the graveyard zone makes it a versatile tool for decks focused on recursion, sacrifice, or graveyard synergy. The foil treatment adds a layer of visual appeal, catching the light and distinguishing it as a premium version of a staple card. This card serves as a tangible piece of that legacy, representing the gothic atmosphere and strategic complexity that defined the era. Whether you are building a themed collection of Innistrad creatures or seeking to complete your Shadows over Innistrad base set, this foil card offers both collectible value and gameplay utility. Its design and function make it a notable item for any Magic: The Gathering enthusiast looking to expand their horde of mythical creatures. Collecting foil cards from this set allows enthusiasts to own a visually striking piece of TCG history. The combination of the Zombie Bird subtype, the milling mechanic, and the foil finish creates a compelling profile for those who value both the art and the strategy of the game. As you explore the Shadows over Innistrad expansion, adding this card to your collection provides a connection to one of the most beloved blocks in Magic history.
