Description
Disturbed Burial, identified as card number 129 in the 1997 Magic: The Gathering Tempest expansion, remains a recognizable asset for enthusiasts of the early trading card game era. Designed as a Black sorcery with a mana cost of {1}{B}, this card allows players to return a creature from the graveyard directly to their hand. Its defining feature is the Buyback ability, which costs an additional {3} mana; paying this extra cost ensures the card returns to the caster's hand after resolving, offering significant replay value. Collectors often seek this product to understand the foundational mechanics that shaped competitive play during Magic's second major expansion. Whether you are building a vintage library or researching the history of the game, this card provides a concrete look at the design philosophy of the late 1990s. The straightforward sorcery type and mono-black color identity make it a staple for decks focusing on recursion and resource management.
