# Mark of the Vampire Mark of the Vampire is a straightforward aura that grants +1/+2 and flying, making it a solid limited role-player in black-based strategies. Collectors view this as a functional reprint of a classic effect that's appeared across Magic's history in various forms. The Jumpstart version holds modest appeal since the set emphasized casual, accessible gameplay rather than chase cards. As a common, it's abundant and inexpensive. Collectors typically acquire it as part of complete set pursuits or when building casual decks rather than as a standalone target. The nonfoil-only printing limits variant interest, making this a straightforward, utilitarian card with minimal collector premium.
