Lord of the AccursedutilityBudget$0.32A black tribal lord that gives your creature suite an anthem effect and also provides an additional combat utility ability. It fills a similar role of boosting a creature theme from the battlefield.Cacophony UnleashedutilityBudget$1.14A black Phyrexian-focused payoff that rewards you for playing the same kind of creature swarm plan. It serves a similar niche as a tribal synergy engine, though it is more spell-based than a lord.Sheoldred, the Apocalypseutility$70.00A powerful black value creature that pressures opponents while stabilizing your position, similar to how Hand of the Praetors gives you incremental advantage from your game plan. It is not tribal, but it is a strong black midrange payoff in the same mana range.Elesh Norn, Mother of Machinesutility$29.65A premium creature-based value engine that snowballs advantage and amplifies your board presence. While not infect-specific, it occupies the same high-impact creature slot as a payoff for building around creatures.Throne of GethutilityBudget$0.79A colorless proliferate engine that helps advance poison counters and other -1/-1 counter plans. It complements infect similarly to Hand of the Praetors by increasing counter-based pressure.NecropedeutilityBudget$0.43An infect creature that contributes to poison-counter pressure and interacts well with other infect synergies. It is a lower-cost alternative that supports the same archetype without the anthem effect.Tine ShrikeutilityBudget$0.17A budget infect creature that advances the same poison strategy and rewards combat damage through infect. It is closer to a support threat than a payoff lord, but it fits the same deck core.Ichorclaw MyrutilityBudget$0.99A classic infect attacker that scales well with combat and benefits from infect synergies. It replaces some of the pressure Hand of the Praetors provides by being a strong early infect body.
