Courtesy of Wizards of the Coast (WotC) and Xolo Mariduena, take a look at this new black mythic rare from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms — The Book of Vile Darkness!
At the beginning of your end step, if you lost 2 or more life this turn, create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token.
T, Exile The Book of Vile Darkness and artifacts you control named Eye of Vecna and Hand of Vecna: Create Vecna, a legendary 8/8 black Zombie God creature token with indestructible. It gains all triggered abilities of the exiled cards.
One of the most unique cards we’ve seen from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms thus far, The Book of Vile Darkness sends the player on a quest to assemble all the pieces of Vecna, a legendary black Zombie God. We haven’t seen the Hand or Eye of Vecna previewed so far, but it’s likely they will have triggered abilities similar to The Book of Vile Darkness.
Once assembled, tapping the Book and exiling each piece will create an indestructible 8/8 Vecna token that gains all triggered abilities of the exiled cards, making it a powerful, value-packed win condition.
So what do you think of The Book of Vile Darkness? Where do you think this will see play? Let us know what you think in the comments!
