Exsanguinate is a powerful black sorcery that has the ability to drain life from opponents and add it to your own life total. The card's effectiveness scales with the amount of mana you're willing to invest in it, represented by the variable {X} in its casting cost.

The card's flavor text paints a darkly whimsical picture of the process, likening the draining of life to taking small sips at a dance. Scott M. Fischer's artwork probably captures this macabre theme, illustrating the process of life-draining with elegance and menace.

This spell is often used in multiplayer formats and can be a game-ending play in the right circumstances. It's a favored choice for many black decks that aim to manipulate life totals.
