Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Haakon, Stromgald Scourge is a quintessential value-engine legend for Magic: The Gathering, rewarding decks that can stock the graveyard and recycle resources rather than rely on conventional casting. As a 3/3 Zombie Knight for three mana, he is already efficient, but his real strength is turning the graveyard into a second hand: once he resolves, every Knight spell becomes a repeatable threat from the bin. That makes him especially strong in grindy midrange or control shells, and he can even fuel combo lines with self-discard, self-mill, or tribal recursion. A classic deckbuilding tip is to pair him with cheap Knights and cards that sacrifice or discard him on purpose, since he can only be cast from the graveyard and not from hand. The life loss on death is a real cost, so protect him with graveyard setup and board control; if he sticks, he becomes a relentless, undead engine that outvalues fair decks.
