Ashiok, Nightmare Muse is a blue and black nightmare Planeswalker, introduced in February 2020 along with the Theros Beyond Death card set.

Ashiok has average health, average mana gains with an unbalanced spread, and average deck limits.

Ashiok's abilities revolve around their opponent's Exile zone, including fetching cards from there with mana, exiling cards from the opponent's library or hand, and creating a Token  creature which becomes stronger as more cards are exiled. Ashiok also has card draw and bounce (return creature to hand) abilities.

Ashiok, Nightmare Muse is the first of two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Ashiok at different points in their life.
