About Unexpected Allies

Unexpected Allies, Sorcery, designed by Milivoj Ćeran first released in Jun, 2022 in the set Alchemy Horizons: Baldur's Gate.

A deck that focuses on tribal synergies or graveyard recursion would benefit most from Unexpected Allies in Magic: the Gathering. This card shines in decks that can easily have multiple creatures with the same name on the battlefield or in the graveyard, maximizing its potential. While Unexpected Allies has its niche uses, there are stronger cards available for similar effects, such as Shared Animosity for tribal decks or Sword of Fire and Ice for additional benefits. Overall, Unexpected Allies could see play in specific deck archetypes but may not be a staple in most competitive decks.
