Sheoldred

{3}{B}{B}

Legendary Creature — Phyrexian Praetor

Menace

When Sheoldred enters, each opponent sacrifices a nontoken creature or planeswalker of their choice.

{4}{B}: Exile Sheoldred, then return it to the battlefield transformed under its owner's control. Activate only as a sorcery and only if an opponent has eight or more cards in their graveyard.

The True Scriptures

Enchantment — Saga

(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter.)

I — For each opponent, destroy up to one target creature or planeswalker that player controls.

II — Each opponent discards three cards, then mills three cards.

III — Put all creature cards from all graveyards onto the battlefield under your control. Exile this Saga, then return it to the battlefield (front face up).

Watch Out

Replacement effect, not an ETB triggerWatch Out

This card uses a replacement effect ('as [it] enters' or 'enters with') to modify how the permanent enters. This is NOT a triggered ability — it can't be responded to, and effects like Panharmonicon or Torpor Orb don't affect it.

ETB trigger, not a cast triggerRules Note

This card's ability triggers when it enters the battlefield, not when it's cast. Effects that double ETB triggers (like Panharmonicon) work here. Countering the spell prevents the creature from entering, so the ETB won't fire.
