📖 About This Game

Amonkhet is a Magic: The Gathering expansion block consisting of the sets Amonkhet and Hour of Devastation. Amonkhet was released on April 28, 2017, and Hour of Devastation was released on July 14, 2017. The eponymous plane has an ancient Egyptian theme, and features concepts like mummies and embalming. Hour of Devastation introduced two additional mechanics: Eternalize: Similar to Embalm, paying a creature's Eternalize cost and exiling it from the graveyard creates a black zombie creature token copy of that creature with base power and toughness 4/4, as with Champion of Wits. Afflict: A creature with Afflict will cause an opponent to lose a defined amount of life when the creature becomes blocked in combat, as with Neheb, the Eternal.
