What it does
Consuming Aberration's power and toughness are each equal to the number of cards in your opponents' graveyards.
Whenever you cast a spell, each opponent reveals cards from the top of their library until they reveal a land card, then puts those cards into their graveyard.

Where it came from
Consuming Aberration was released in February 2013 as part of the Gatecrash expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Representing the Dimir guild, the card was designed to embody the themes of mill—a strategy focused on depleting an opponent's library—and the color identity of blue and black. Its mechanical design emphasizes the synergy between spellcasting and graveyard manipulation, making it a hallmark of the set's graveyard-focused mechanics.
The artwork was illustrated by Karl Kopinski, a prominent fantasy artist known for his gritty, detailed style. Kopinski depicted the creature as a towering, nightmarish construct of psychic energy and discarded remnants, perfectly capturing the Dimir aesthetic of subterranean espionage and cognitive manipulation. Upon its release, the card became a beloved fixture in casual and Commander formats for its high-impact, chaotic effect on the game state.
