Spider Spawning

Description

Spider Spawning, card number 183 in the 2018 Ultimate Masters release, serves as a potent sorcery for players seeking graveyard synergy. Designed by Daniel Ljunggren and marked with the UMA set code, this uncommon card from Magic: The Gathering offers significant value through its unique mechanics. The card features a mana cost of {4}{G} and a mana value of 5, allowing it to generate a number of 1/2 green Spider creature tokens with reach equal to the count of creature cards in your graveyard. This ability transforms discarded or spent resources into immediate board presence, making it a strategic tool for deck builders looking to leverage their removal spells or earlier plays. Beyond its initial effect, Spider Spawning includes a flashback cost of {6}{B}, permitting players to cast the spell from their graveyard after it has been removed from play. This dual-natured design—combining green mana generation with black mana utility—reflects the card's color identity of B and G. The flashback mechanic ensures that the card remains relevant even after being exiled, providing a second chance to deploy tokens when the original casting may have been suboptimal or when resources are needed later in the game. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a collection, Spider Spawning stands out for its efficient resource conversion and reliable token generation.
