Maestros diabolist
Casting Cost: {U} {b} {r}
Card type: Creature - Vampire Warrior
Power/Toughness: 1/4
Card Text:

  • DeathTouch, Haste
  • Whenever maestros diabolist attacks, if you don't control a devil token, create a tapped and attacking 1/1 red devil creature token with "when this creature dies, it deals 1 damage to any target."
    Flavour text:
  • "Where did I find my horned friend? Now there's a Story Worth count.."
    Artist: Bastien L. Deharme

Strengths:

  • Threat Multiplication: Automatically Generates Devil tokens When attacking, Increasing the Number of Threats on the Board.
  • Combat Relevance: Deathtouch Makes It a Nuisance in Combat, Forcing Opponents Into Difficult Blocks.
  • Immediate impact: Haste Allows It To Contribute To The Board State Imediately Upon Enterting The Battlefield.

Weaknesses:

  • Low power: A 1/4 Stat Line for a Three-Cost Creature is not particularly aggressive, thought The Deathtouch Helps.
  • Mana Intensive: Three-Colored Mana Requirement Limits It To Grixis Decks.

Potential Deck Placement:

  • A Strong Inclusion in Grixis Aggro or Midrange Decks That Can Take Advantage of the Devil tokens.
  • An interesting option for commander decks that because to produce tokens and benefit from combat triggers.

Flavor and Art:

  • Bastien L. Deharme, Known for Moody and Evocative Artwork, would Likely Deliver a Vivid Depiction of this Diabolical Creature.
  • The flavour text teases a tantalizing story, likely a nod to the cunning and treacherous nature of devils and vampires.

Overall impression:

  • Maestros diabolist sacrifices a unique blend of aggressive and disruptive elements. The ability to generate devil tokens provides both offensive and defensive utility, while deathtouch makes it a problematic creature for opponents to deal with in combat. Its three-colored casting cost is a limitation but worth the investment in a focused grixis strategy.
