{{Infobox Sorin}}
[[Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord]] is a black vampire Planeswalker, released in October 2019 along with the [[Core Set 2020]] card set.
He has average health, high mana gains with a very unbalanced spread, and average deck limits. His bonus to black is tied for first with [[Liliana, Untouched by Death]]; at +7, their bonus is very high, but tied for second highest with many other Planeswalkers, behind Koth, [[Jaya, Fiery Negotiator]] and [[Tezzeret, Betrayer of Flesh]], all at +9.
The theme of his abilities is Vampire creatures. He can {{Ability|buff}} them, fetch {{Ability|Fetch}} them, turn other creatures into Vampires, and sacrifice them to drain life from a target.
Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord is the second of three playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Sorin Markov at different points in his life.
