Artist: Chase Stone

Zilortha is an intriguing card design that flips conventional game mechanics on their head. By determining lethal damage based on power rather than toughness, it changes the dynamic of combat and how players evaluate threats. High-powered, low-toughness creatures, which are typically vulnerable in combat, suddenly become formidable threats under Zilortha's rule. This unique mechanic makes Zilortha a potentially powerful commander in EDH/Commander format, especially in decks designed to exploit this ability. Chase Stone's art would likely depict Zilortha as a towering, mighty dinosaur, emphasizing its raw power and dominance. The flavor text suggests that Zilortha's might is not to be underestimated, as those who believed they could defeat it met a grim end.
