Sorin the Mirthless
Oracle Text
+1: Look at the top card of your library. You may reveal that card and put it into your hand. If you do, you lose life equal to its mana value.
−2: Create a 2/3 black Vampire creature token with flying and lifelink.
−7: Sorin deals 13 damage to any target. You gain 13 life.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Sorin the Mirthless fits best in value-oriented control or midrange decks that can turn life loss into an advantage rather than a liability. His +1 is a steady card-selection engine that effectively draws cards while letting you choose when the life payment matters, which is especially strong in black decks with lifegain, life-drain, or low-curve spells. The −2 immediately stabilizes the board by creating a 2/3 flying lifelink Vampire, a perfect tempo play that blocks well, races aggressively, and helps offset the life you spend on the +1. In deckbuilding, pair him with cards that reward life gain or care about life totals, such as sacrifice outlets, Vampire synergies, or extort-like effects, so his token and drain theme keep compounding. The ultimate is not subtle: 13 damage and 13 life can swing a stalled game hard, making Sorin a strong threat in attrition matchups. Lore-wise, the card name and haunting title evoke a grim aristocrat whose bitterness is weaponized into endurance, hunger, and ruthless survival.
