The Rack The Rack English

Artifact, 1 (1)

As The Rack enters the battlefield, choose an opponent.

At the beginning of the chosen player's upkeep, The Rack deals X damage to that player, where X is 3 minus the number of cards in his or her hand.

Invented in Mishra's earlier days, the Rack was once his most feared creation.
