Character Background

Crow of Dark Tidings is a small, three‑mana 2/1 flying that quietly accelerates graveyard plans: its enter‑the‑battlefield and death triggers mill two cards, so each block or sacrifice effectively refills your yard. The card best supports graveyard/value and combo strategies — think delve threats like Gurmag Angler or Treasure Cruise, flashback engines, and reanimator lines — while in limited it can chip in as a cheap evasive threat for tempo. A specific synergy is Altar of Dementia or Carrion Feeder: sacrifice the crow to repeatedly trigger its death mill and fuel both your graveyard and sacrifice payoffs. Deckbuilding tip: include 2–4 low‑cost graveyard payoffs (delve creatures, flashback spells, or reanimation targets) and one cheap sacrifice outlet to turn the crow into consistent card‑flow rather than a fragile 2/1. Be mindful that it trades poorly in removal‑heavy metas, but as a free mill engine it converts small tempo into long‑term card advantage.
