About Sedris, the Traitor King

Sedris, the Traitor King, Legendary creature — zombie warrior, designed by Paul Bonner first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 23.44.

A deck that focuses on graveyard recursion and aggressive strategies would benefit from including Sedris, the Traitor King, as it allows for repeated reanimation of creature cards with haste. However, in a competitive setting, there are more efficient options available such as Reanimate or Animate Dead, which provide quicker and more cost-effective ways to bring creatures back from the graveyard. While Sedris has its niche uses, it may not see widespread play in optimized decks due to its higher mana cost and slower unearth ability.

Rules

10/01/08

At the beginning of the end step, a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Stifle or Voidslime that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the creature will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won’t trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the creature when it eventually leaves the battlefield.

10/01/08

If a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it’s exiled instead — unless the spell or ability that’s causing the creature to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If it later returns the creature card to the battlefield (as Oblivion Ring or Flickerwisp might, for example), the creature card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.

10/01/08

If you activate a card’s unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.

10/01/08

Sedris may cause a creature card in your graveyard to have multiple unearth abilities. (For example, a Fatestitcher in your graveyard would have unearth and unearth .) You may activate either of those abilities.
