Description
Necromantic Selection is a rare black sorcery from the 2020 Magic: The Gathering Zendikar Rising Commander subset. Carrying the card number 48 and the set code ZNC, this card is designed for players seeking high-impact black mana strategies. With a mana cost of {4}{B}{B}{B} and a total mana value of seven, it represents a significant investment in a deck's resources, requiring careful timing to maximize its potential. The card's effect is both destructive and restorative. When cast, it destroys all creatures on the battlefield, clearing the board of threats. Immediately following this destruction, the caster may return one creature card that was put into a graveyard during this process to the battlefield under their control. This returned creature becomes a black Zombie in addition to its other colors and types, allowing for surprising synergies and unexpected board presence. After resolving its effect, Necromantic Selection is exiled, ensuring the one-time nature of this powerful spell. Created by artist Dave Kendall, the card fits within the normal layout typical of the Zendikar Rising expansion. For collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards, this card is a notable piece of the 2020 Commander subset. It appeals to those who appreciate high-mana-cost sorceries that can single-handedly shift the momentum of a game. The flavor text, "It shambled from the cloud of ash and bone dust, undeterred by its own extinction," hints at the dark, resilient nature of the creatures it can summon. Finding a copy of Necromantic Selection allows collectors to add a unique gameplay tool to their portfolio. Whether you are building a zombie-themed deck or simply enjoy the strategic depth of mass removal combined with resurrection, this card offers a distinct experience.
