Description

Karlach, Tiefling Punisher (HBG-14b) is a legendary creature — Tiefling Barbarian from Alchemy Horizons: Baldur's Gate. It has first strike and haste and a triggered ability that can return it from your graveyard to the battlefield while imposing a perpetual "can't block" drawback; another specialization-triggered ability lets you sacrifice a creature to draw two cards and drain opponents for 2 life each. As a three-mana B/R legendary with offensive stats, it functions as an aggressive value engine that trades blocking potential for recurring card advantage and life loss effects.
