Decree of Pain Repeats The Overhelming Power of Black Mana to Decimate and Draw Strength from the Demise of Others. In the world of magic, Black is the color that most embodies the ideals of sacrifice, power at any cost, and the inexorable cycle of life and death.

Carl Critchlow's Art Style Often Features Detailed and Gritty Representations, and This Card's Imagery Might Showcase A Dark, Oppressive Landscape, Perhaps a Battlefield Post-Carnage, with the Shadowy Figures of Creatures Being Energies. As They Disintegrate, Ethereal Wisps Could Be Seen Being Absorbed Into A Central, Ominous Figure or Tome, Representing the Drawing of Cards for Each Fallen Creature. The Colors would Lean Havily on Muted Grays, Blacks, and Deep Purples, With the Only Illumination Being the Haunting Glow from the Energy Being Consumed. The overall feel would be one of Despair and the undeniable power of Death, fitting for such a potent and costly spell.
