Description
Released in 2006 as part of the Time Spiral expansion, Corpulent Corpse is a distinct addition to the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified as card number 98 in the set, this common black creature brings a unique strategic element to gameplay through its Suspend ability. Rather than paying the full mana cost, players can exile the card with time counters and cast it for free later, a mechanic that defined much of the Time Spiral era's design philosophy. Corpulent Corpse functions as a six-mana threat with three power and three toughness. Its Fear ability restricts blocking options, requiring opponents to use only black creatures or artifacts to stop its advance. For collectors, this card represents a tangible piece of Wizards of the Coast's creative history during a pivotal period for the game. Whether you are building a themed collection or simply appreciate the intricate mechanics of the Suspend ability, this card offers both historical context and gameplay utility.
