Bontu's Monument, Legendary artifact, designed by Jonas De Ro first released in Apr, 2017 in the set Amonkhet and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 15 combos.
This card would be beneficial in a black creature-heavy deck that focuses on swarming the board with creatures and draining opponents' life. While Bontu's Monument provides cost reduction and life gain, there are better options like Urza's Incubator for cost reduction and Blood Artist for life drain in specific strategies. However, Bontu's Monument can still be a valuable inclusion in decks looking to maximize the benefits of casting black creature spells and draining opponents' life simultaneously.

A creature spell that’s multiple colors is each of those colors. For example, Ahn-Crop Champion is a white creature and a green creature, so it can benefit from either Oketra’s Monument or Rhonas’s Monument—or both at once.

Each Monument’s triggered ability triggers as the creature spell is cast and resolves before that creature spell resolves. The ability will resolve even if that creature spell is countered.

In a Two-Headed Giant game, the triggered ability of Bontu’s Monument causes the opposing team to lose 2 life and you gain 1 life.
