About Tainted Monkey

Tainted Monkey, Creature — monkey, designed by Mark Zug first released in Nov, 2004 in the set Unhinged. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.19.

A deck focused on milling and controlling the opponent's resources would benefit from including Tainted Monkey in its strategy, as it can potentially deal direct damage by targeting specific words in the opponent's deck. However, there are more efficient cards like Mind Funeral or Glimpse the Unthinkable that offer broader milling effects and more consistent damage potential, making them better choices for competitive play. Tainted Monkey could be a fun and quirky addition to a casual mill deck but may not see much play in more competitive settings.
