Lore

Why it matters

Heart-Piercer Manticore debuted in the 2017 Amonkhet set, introducing the sacrifice-based "embalm" mechanics that defined the block's graveyard-focused gameplay. Collectors value this rare creature for Scott Murphy's striking depiction of the mythical beast, which remains a thematic staple for players building decks around the hazards and trials of the plane of Amonkhet.
