Usurp the Shadow Throne

Legendary Stories has been given two cards from Usurp the Shadow Throne to reveal. Here they are.

Countdown to Extinction and Darkest Hour, from Usurp the Shadow Throne

Both are illustrated by Nailsen Ivanderlie.

Countdown to Extinction

A three-cost Shadow Attack Action, six power, IAR167.

When this attacks, create a Gate to i’Arathael token.

When this hits, you may search your deck for a Darkest Hour, banish it, then shuffle.

Blood Debt (while this is banished, at the beginning of your end phase, lose 1 life).

Darkest Hour

A two-cost Shadow Action, IAR209.

You may put a card from your hand on top of your deck rather than pay this card’s cost.

Your next Shadow attack this turn gets +4 power. Go again

Blood Debt — while this is banished, at the beginning of your end phase, lose 1 life.

The names, in Arcane

Arcane shows the alphabet the Runeblades have been writing in since Arcane Rising, and it maps one to one onto English - so both card names can be written in it!

Every glyph above was traced out of published card art and built into a working typeface. You can type your own words on the Arcane page.
