Command the Dreadhorde

Description

Command the Dreadhorde stands as a pivotal black sorcery within the 2019 War of the Spark expansion, carrying card number 82 in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by artist Daarken, this rare card embodies the dark themes central to the set's narrative. As a six-mana investment, it offers powerful graveyard interaction that rewards strategic planning and resource management. The card’s mechanics allow players to target any number of creature and planeswalker cards residing in graveyards. Upon resolution, the caster takes damage equal to the total mana value of those selected cards. In exchange for this life loss, all targeted permanents are put onto the battlefield under the controller’s ownership. This exchange makes it a high-risk, high-reward tool for decks focused on recursion and board presence. Collectors often seek this card for its thematic resonance with Liliana, who seizes control of Bolas's vast army, as hinted by the flavor text behind the Chain Veil. Card #82 represents the distinctive black mana identity and the intricate graveyard strategies that define this era of the game. For investors and hobbyists, building a complete set or focusing on specific colors like black provides a structured approach to accumulation. The card’s design and gameplay mechanics make it a memorable piece for those who appreciate the strategic depth of the format. Whether you are completing a set or hunting for specific rare cards, Command the Dreadhorde is a notable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection.
