Description
Card number 98 in the 2019 Throne of Eldraine expansion, the Oathsworn Knight is a distinctive Rare creature within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Created by artist Svetlin Velinov, this card introduces a powerful mechanical identity to the Human Knight tribal archetype. As a black mana creature with a mana cost of {1}{B}{B}, it offers a unique entry state for players seeking immediate board presence. The Oathsworn Knight is designed to enter the battlefield with four +1/+1 counters already attached, allowing it to function as a substantial threat right away. Its design includes a critical defensive ability: if damage would be dealt to the creature while it still possesses at least one counter, that damage is prevented and a counter is removed instead. This mechanic effectively grants the card a form of temporary invulnerability, making it resilient against early removal spells. The Oathsworn Knight stands out as a functional piece of that narrative, representing the chivalric themes of the setting through its Knight subtype. Whether you are building a set collection or looking for versatile cards to add to your library, this card represents a solid intersection of flavor and mechanics. Its straightforward rules text and impactful startup make it a memorable inclusion in the ELD set code release.
