Nostos and Temptation

Type: Token

Rarity: Token

Mana Cost: —

Color Identity: Colorless

Reminder card. Nostos: whenever a creature you control dies, put a nostos counter on your commander. Nostos counters are NEVER removed, and they stay with your commander wherever it goes, including the command zone. Removal, board wipes and the commander tax do not touch the count.

At TEN nostos counters you are home: Odysseus destroys every creature your opponents control, returns every creature card in your graveyard to the battlefield, and gains you 10 life. The deck therefore spends its own crew on purpose — the Suitor token stream, the free sacrifice outlets and both board wipes are fuel, not accidents.

Temptation: target opponent may pay a stated price. If they do, a small thing happens for you. If they don't, a large thing happens for you. The choice is theirs and it is made immediately, on resolution. Nothing is stored, nothing is owed, and nothing is collected later.

“Six hundred men sailed out of this harbour and one man walked up from it. Both numbers belong to the same word.”

Single card from the THE ODYSSEY (Ten Years Home) Commander deck. Sold individually.
