Product Overview

Description

Designed with an adventure layout, this rare card bridges the gap between a creature and an instant spell, offering unique gameplay flexibility. The card is classified as a Creature — Zombie Knight with a mana cost of {1}{B}{B} and a mana value of 3, making it a cost-effective addition to black decks. As a Zombie Knight, the Murderous Rider enters the battlefield as a 2/3 creature. Players can choose to cast its second face, Swift End, an Instant spell also costing {1}{B}{B}, to remove a target creature with power two or less. This dual functionality allows collectors and players to appreciate the card's strategic depth within the Commander format and other casual environments. Collecting this promo card is a popular pursuit for enthusiasts looking to complete the Throne of Eldraine checklist or seek out specific rare variants. The 97p catalog number distinguishes this promo release from the standard set cards, adding a layer of specificity for cataloging purposes. Whether used in a deck or displayed as part of a collection, the Murderous Rider // Swift End stands as a notable piece of Magic: The Gathering history from 2019.
