Character Background

Neheb, the Eternal is the kind of menace that turns every stumble into a resource, binding ancient, gladiatorial persistence to a brutal clock. With Afflict 3, he pressures opponents even when they manage to block—your best-case attack is still profitable, because every successful “defense” chips three life and advances your win faster than most minotaurs. The real payoff is the mana engine: at each of your postcombat main phases, you add {R} for each 1 life your opponents have lost this turn, so the deck plan is aggressively tempo- and value-oriented—hit, force blocks, convert that life loss into burst mana, then chain threats or removal while your enemy is already drained. To maximize him, build around repeated, reliable damage in the same turn (cheap burn, multiple attackers, or cards that repeatedly chip life totals) so you consistently accrue red mana. Aim to sequence attacks to maximize life loss early, then cash the generated {R} into follow-up plays—Neheb rewards turn-to-turn momentum, not slow inevitability.
