About Nightmare's Thirst

Nightmare's Thirst, Instant, designed by Igor Kieryluk first released in Jul, 2018 in the set Core Set 2019. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.35.

Nightmare's Thirst would be beneficial in a black deck that focuses on gaining life, as it can act as both a removal spell and a way to weaken opposing creatures. Decks that have synergies with life gain, such as lifelink creatures or cards that reward gaining life, would make the most out of this card. However, in more aggressive or combo-focused decks that don't prioritize life gain, Nightmare's Thirst may not be as impactful compared to other removal spells like Fatal Push or Dismember.

Rules

07/13/18

Nightmare’s Thirst counts how much life you’ve gained this turn, not how much your life total changed. For example, if you’ve gained 5 life and lost 8 before Nightmare’s Thirst resolves, Nightmare’s Thirst has you gain 1 more life, then it gives the target creature -6/-6.
