Enduring Tenacity
Oracle Text
Whenever you gain life, target opponent loses that much life.
When Enduring Tenacity dies, if it was a creature, return it to the battlefield under its owner's control. It's an enchantment. (It's not a creature.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Enduring Tenacity is a mythic payoff for black life-drain shells that wants to turn every point of healing into a clock, making it especially strong in control or midrange-value decks that can stabilize first and then close quickly. As a 4/3 enchantment creature for four mana, it pressures life totals immediately, and its text rewards any repeatable life gain by draining an opponent for the same amount, so even small triggers snowball fast. It pairs well with cards that gain life in bursts or repeatedly—think sacrifice engines with drain, incidental lifelink creatures, or enchantment-centric builds that can recur and protect it. The death trigger is also useful: if it dies as a creature, it comes back as an enchantment, letting you keep the drain effect through removal and sweepers. In practice, deploy it when you can start chaining life gain soon, because unchecked it becomes a persistent, hard-to-answer source of inevitability.
