Rise from the Tides

Description

Rise from the Tides is a distinct blue Sorcery included in the 2024 Magic: The Gathering The List set, carrying the card number GN2-23. This card is part of a special promotional distribution channel that has long been a staple for enthusiasts seeking unique additions to their digital and physical libraries. As a component of The List, it offers collectors a specific piece of the game's broader narrative ecosystem, particularly those interested in the darker, more complex storylines involving characters like Ghoulcaller Gisa and Ludevic. The card functions as a resource engine, allowing players to convert cards in their graveyard into battlefield presence. By paying five generic mana and one blue mana, the caster creates a tapped 2/2 black Zombie creature token for each instant and sorcery card residing in their graveyard. This mechanic rewards players who have spent mana on spells earlier in the game, turning discarded resources into a potent army of undead warriors. The design encourages strategic planning, as the effectiveness of Rise from the Tides scales directly with the number of sorceries and instants previously played. Collectors often seek out cards from The List due to their unique distribution method and the high-quality artistic treatments typically associated with the brand. The presence of flavor text referencing Ludevic adds a layer of narrative depth that appeals to fans of the game's lore. Whether you are building a thematic deck centered around zombies or simply appreciate the intricate storytelling woven into Magic: The Gathering, this card represents a valuable entry for any serious collection.
