Altar of Shadows, Artifact, designed by Sam Wood first released in Oct, 2003 in the set Mirrodin. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.75.
A deck that focuses on controlling the board and generating mana would benefit from including Altar of Shadows, as it provides a steady source of black mana and creature removal. However, decks that aim for faster wins may find the high mana cost and slow activation of this card to be a hindrance. There are potentially better options for creature removal and mana generation in the current Magic: The Gathering card pool, such as cards like Damnation or Cabal Coffers, which may offer more immediate and efficient benefits for certain strategies. Ultimately, whether Altar of Shadows sees play will depend on the specific deck archetype and playstyle of the player.

The precombat main phase is the first main phase of the turn. All others are postcombat main phases, even if they technically occur before combat.
