mtg cards that reduce the cost of activated abilities Zirda, Dawnwaker Power Artifact · Antiquities (ATQ)

Gray Merchant of Asphodel If I took a straw poll and asked for iconic black finishers, Im sure Gary would end up pretty high on the list

Black has actually recently gained some useful cheap utility dorks in Carrier Thrall and Cryptbreaker than should make this card perform better

Anyone that has played a Torrential Gearhulk deck has probably died with copies of Glimmer in hand after missing land drops, and Illumination can help in these worst-case scenarios

Putting aside the solid art and fantastic flavor and were left with a 4-drop of such a ridiculous power level that Commander decks built around it will almost certainly need to be intentionally de-tuned to allow you to avoid getting the boot from your playgroup
