Oracle Text

When a creature is put into an opponent's graveyard from the battlefield, exile this creature.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Magus of the Bridge is a strange, ruthless value engine for black decks that want every death to matter. At three black mana, a 4/4 body already pressures the board, but its real strength is turning your nontoken creatures’ deaths into a stream of 2/2 Zombies, making it ideal for sacrifice, attrition, and midrange-control shells rather than pure aggro. The downside clause is important: if an opponent’s creature dies, Magus gets exiled, so you want to control combat and removal carefully, often by sacrificing your own creatures on your terms instead of trading in messy board stalls. It pairs especially well with free sacrifice outlets like Carrion Feeder or Viscera Seer, and with recursive creatures that can be rebought after dying. In Modern Horizons 2, it feels like a necromantic tollkeeper at the bridge between life and death, rewarding disciplined sequencing and punishing any plan that relies on symmetrical creature combat.
