About True Ancestry

True Ancestry, Sorcery — lesson, designed by Chibi first released in Oct, 2025 in the set Avatar: The Last Airbender. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

True Ancestry is a versatile card that would benefit graveyard-focused decks in Magic: the Gathering, particularly those with a focus on ramp and value generation in green. While it offers card advantage through graveyard recursion and card draw with the Clue token, there are potentially stronger options like Eternal Witness which provides direct creature recursion or Regrowth for instant spell recovery. However, True Ancestry's added utility makes it a worthwhile consideration in decks where the Clue token synergy or broader permanent retrieval is advantageous, and could see play in niche builds looking for graveyard shenanigans.
