Video Transcript

"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we're going to be discussing the black color from "Magic: The Gathering". And now I'm going to discuss the "Nantuko Husk". "Nantuko Husk" is a very powerful card and in the uncommon basic set. It is an uncommon, and has been around for quite some time. This card is a very very good card because it gives you several abilities. Once again, it's a zombie insect, which means he gives benefits for all cards that benefit zombie and/or insects or both, and it's 2 and a black to play, which gives you a 2/2 creature, which is actually even mana production, 1 black to play it, and 2 mana extra gives you the 2/2. And here we have--it's going to have an ability. The ability on this card is to sacrifice a creature: Nantuko Husk gets + 2 +2 until end of turn. Now you'd play this card in a creature deck that has a lot of creatures, that when they go the graveyard they have an ability. That way you can sacrifice them to Nantuko Husk to make him larger and to trip the ability of the other cards."
