--- Torment is a black-focused Magic: The Gathering set centered on Cabal's Dementia Summoners, introducing Madness and Nightmare mechanics to drive opponents insane (20 words). Key mechanics include: - *Madness* A new mechanic enabling dark, insanity-inducing plays. - *Nightmares* A new mechanic designed to torment opponents psychologically. - *Flashback and Threshold* Additional cards supporting mechanics from the Odyssey set. Torment is a 143-card Magic: The Gathering expansion set, the blackest of black-themed releases, centered around the Cabal's Dementia Summoners. It introduces two innovative mechanics—Madness and Nightmares—explicitly crafted to drive opponents utterly insane through wielded dark powers, exemplified by cards like the Faceless Butcher and Sengir Vampire. The set also provides further support for Flashback and Threshold mechanics originating from Odyssey, enhancing strategic depth in black-mana decks and psychological warfare gameplay. ---
