Ghostly Changeling Black Card in Magic the Gathering

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". Now, I'm going to discuss Ghostly Changeling. Ghostly Changeling is a powerful card out of the Lorwyn set. It is an uncommon, it is a creature - shapeshifter which means, that down here in the block, you're going to see that it's a changeling, which means that it is any and all creature types at all times. Ghostly Changeling cost you 2 and a black to play, it gives you a 2/2 creature, which is even with mana production to power-toughness ratio, and you're going to get a free ability. The ability that comes free with Ghostly Changeling is lets you pay 1 and a black, and as you notice, this is not a tap effect, this is 1 and a black, so you can pay this as many times as you would like, 1 and a black Ghostly Changeling gets +1/+1 until end of turn. So, if you have enough mana open, you can boost this creature, an awful lot by just paying 2 mana for each +1/+1. So, if you had 6 then you will get 3, so you could turn this creature into a 5/5 which makes him very powerful."
