Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Cover of Darkness is a deliciously thematic enchantment: as it enters you cloak an entire tribe in shadow so their strikes slip past everyone but artifact or black defenders, evoking Assassin’s Creed stealth tactics rather than inventing new lore. In gameplay it best supports tribal aggro/tempo builds — turning a critical mass of small Rogues, Vampires, or Zombies into reliable damage lanes — and it also finds a home in midrange decks that want repeatable evasive pressure. Deckbuilding tips: pick the type you can reliably flood the board with and run type-ensuring cards like Metallic Mimic or Adaptive Automaton and tribal lords/anthems to amplify kills. Be mindful your opponent can blunt you with artifact blockers or black creatures, so include artifact hate (Abrade, Shatter) or targeted removal to dismantle those stoppers. Also pair with cheap pump or evasion redundancy (e.g., Rogue/Vampire token generators and anthem effects) so each swing becomes clockwork damage rather than a stalled board state.
