About Erebos, God of the Dead

Erebos, God of the Dead, Legendary enchantment creature — god, designed by Peter Mohrbacher first released in May, 2020 in the set Theros and was printed exactly in 3 different ways.

A mono-black control or midrange deck would benefit from using Erebos, God of the Dead due to its ability to prevent opponents from gaining life and its card draw ability. While Erebos is a strong card in such decks, there are potentially better options depending on the specific strategy and metagame, such as Phyrexian Arena for consistent card draw or other powerful black enchantments like Necropotence. Ultimately, Erebos should see play in decks looking to disrupt opponents' life gain strategies and maintain card advantage.
