Slum Reaper

Description

As card number 114 in the Ultimate Masters (UMA) set, this common creature is defined by its imposing mana cost of three generic mana and one black mana, placing it squarely in the mid-game where its impact is most felt. Slum Reaper is classified as a Horror creature with four power and two toughness, making it a resilient presence on the battlefield. Its primary strength lies in its triggered ability: when this creature enters, each player must sacrifice a creature of their choice. This effect allows the controller to clear the board of opposing threats or remove their own problematic units, providing significant strategic flexibility. The card’s black color identity aligns it with the Orzhov guild, reflecting its thematic role in collecting souls from the unguilded districts of Ravnica. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often seek out the foil versions of cards like Slum Reaper for their enhanced visual appeal and tactile quality. The foil finish adds a layer of prestige to this otherwise common card, making it a desirable addition to any collection focused on the Ultimate Masters era. Whether you are building a deck around board control or simply appreciating the intricate artwork by Karl Kopinski, this card represents a key piece of the set's design.
