Shabraz, the Skyshark

Description

Shabraz, the Skyshark is a distinctive legendary creature card from Magic: The Gathering's 2021 The List set, identified by the catalog number C20-14. As a Mythic Rare card, it holds a significant place in the collectible market for fans of the Shark and Bird creature types. Designed by Paul Scott Canavan, this card brings a unique artistic vision to the legendary creature slot, appealing to those who appreciate the diverse art styles found within The List expansion. In gameplay, Shabraz functions as a five-mana Legendary Creature — Shark Bird with a power and toughness of 3/3. Its primary appeal lies in its partner mechanic, which allows it to team up with Brallin, Skyshark Rider. This partnership creates a synergistic effect where drawing cards triggers the placement of +1/+1 counters on Shabraz and grants the controller one life. This mechanic encourages strategic deck building focused on card draw and incremental advantage. Additionally, the card offers a activated ability that allows a player to target a Human creature, granting it flying until the end of the turn for a {W/U} mana cost. This versatility makes it a flexible addition to decks that utilize human tribal strategies or benefit from temporary evasion. The C20-14 designation helps identify this printing, making it easier for set builders and researchers to track their acquisitions. Whether you are completing a collection of The List cards or looking for powerful legendary creatures to add to your library, Shabraz represents a notable piece of Magic history. Its combination of thematic creature types and interactive mechanics continues to attract interest from both competitive players and casual hobbyists who enjoy the depth of the trading card game.
