Ob Nixilis, the Adversary has solid mana gains, especially Red and Black, with a little Blue. He has balanced deck limits and low health.

Ob Nixilis can make his opponent discard cards and lose life, or draw cards and take damage. He can gain life, summon Red Devil tokens and give HasteHaste, BerserkerBerserker and First StrikeFirst Strike to the tokens. Although temporary buffs are usually only categorized as such, the Berserker given to the Red Devils is categorized separately, because of the synergy with the Red Devils' death ability.

Ob2 is the third dual color walker to receive a Passive Ability, after Dungeon Master and Arlinn, the Pack's Hope: Casual Call, which can double the effects of his Loyalty abilities.

Ob Nixilis, the Adversary is the second of two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Ob Nixilis at different points in his life.
