10—19 | Draw two cards.
20 | Put a creature card from any graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. When that creature dies, its owner loses the game.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
The Deck of Many Things is a quintessential high-variance value engine that best suits control or midrange decks willing to play a long game and absorb some chaos for powerful upside. In an Adventures in the Forgotten Realms setting, it feels like a literal gamble with fate: the bigger your hand, the harsher the downside, but that tension is also part of its appeal. The ideal use is to deploy it when your hand is already low, so you maximize the chance of a favorable d20 result without risking a devastating discard. Deckbuilding-wise, it pairs well with graveyard-focused shells that can capitalize on the 1–9 mode by turning random recursion into real card advantage, and with effects that let you dump cards early so the hand-size penalty is manageable. The 10–19 mode is clean refill, while the 20 can steal an opposing finisher and threaten an immediate win-con sequence.
