Item Description

Helm of Obedience is a 1996 artifact with a second life as a combo piece. For X and a tap, it makes target opponent mill cards one at a time until a creature card or X cards hit their graveyard; if a creature lands there, you sacrifice the Helm and put that creature onto the battlefield under your control.

On its own it is a quirky way to steal a creature from the top of an opponent's library. The magic happens next to Rest in Peace or Leyline of the Void. With either one out, the milled cards are exiled instead of reaching the graveyard, so the Helm never sees a creature or X cards arrive there and keeps going. For X equal to one, it mills an opponent's entire library in a single activation, a two-card combo long associated with older formats and still a fun trick for white or black Commander decks that run graveyard hate.

Alliances was the 1996 expansion that closed out the Ice Age block, and its artwork carries that classic mid-nineties look. This is the Alliances printing, collector number 121, illustrated by Brian Snõddy, in non-foil.
