Shared Animosity

Description

Shared Animosity, identified as card number 231 in the 2023 Lost Caverns of Ixalan Commander subset, is a distinct enchantment within the Magic: The Gathering catalog. This card introduces a dynamic combat mechanic that rewards players for building cohesive swarms. When creatures you control attack, each one gains a +1/+0 power boost for every other attacker sharing its specific creature type. This effect encourages the construction of focused decks where multiple units of the same lineage work in unison, turning a standard offensive into a formidable force. Art by Chuck Lukacs, the card is categorized as a rare print within the LCC set code. Its mana cost of two red mana and one generic mana makes it accessible in red-based strategies. As a Commander subset release, it offers collectors a specialized entry point into the broader Lost Caverns of Ixalan expansion. Enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game often seek this card for its ability to scale damage output without requiring complex resource management. The thematic flavor, attributed to the flamekin demagogue Vessifrus, underscores the card’s focus on collective strength over individual prowess. For collectors building their Magic: The Gathering library, Shared Animosity represents a strategic tool that blends mechanical depth with the rich lore of the Ixalan plane.
