Lore & Trivia
Card Lore
Dark Ritual is one of the five Alpha boons and was potentially the second-most powerful after Ancestral Recall, providing exceptional mana acceleration for mono-black decks. It was removed from core sets after Fifth Edition because designers felt it negatively impacted black card design, with the ritual ability subsequently shifted to red.
