    Creature — Zombie

    Gray Merchant of Asphodel

    Illustrated by Robbie Trevino

    EDHREC Rank #241
    When this creature enters, each opponent loses X life, where X is your devotion to black. You gain life equal to the life lost this way. (Each black mana in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to black.)

    Rulings (6)

    The amount of life you gain is the total amount of life lost, not simply the value of X.

    Mana symbols in the text boxes of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.

    Hybrid mana symbols, monocolored hybrid mana symbols, and Phyrexian mana symbols do count toward your devotion to their color(s).
