Description
The Sacred Cat (AKH-27) is a white common creature card from Magic: The Gathering's The List series, released in 2019. Illustrated by Zezhou Chen, this 1/1 Cat creature costs one white mana to cast and features the lifelink keyword, allowing its controller to gain life equal to damage dealt in combat. Beyond its standard abilities, the card includes the embalm mechanic, which offers a unique graveyard interaction. By paying one white mana and exiling the card from the graveyard, players can create a token copy that functions as a white Zombie Cat with no mana cost. This versatile design makes the Sacred Cat a valuable asset for collectors and players alike, offering both immediate board presence and strategic depth. As part of The List, a unique promotional product that features cards from various Magic sets, this release holds special significance for enthusiasts of the trading card game. The combination of lifelink and embalm provides flexible gameplay options, making it a sought-after card for those who appreciate innovative mechanics. Whether you are building a thematic deck or simply expanding your collection of Magic: The Gathering cards, the Sacred Cat represents a clever and efficient design from 2019.
