About Vampire Nocturnus

Vampire Nocturnus, Creature — vampire, designed by Andrew Robinson first released in Jun, 2002 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 10 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 848.23.

A deck that focuses on black Vampire creatures and has ways to manipulate the top card of the library, such as scrying or card draw, would benefit from including Vampire Nocturnus. While it can provide a significant power boost and evasion to your creatures, its triple black mana cost can be restrictive. Depending on the deck's strategy, there may be better options like Captivating Vampire for tribal synergy or other powerful black creatures like Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet for more immediate impact. Ultimately, Vampire Nocturnus can be a strong inclusion in the right deck but may not always be the optimal choice.

Rules

07/01/13

If the top card of your library is black, Vampire Nocturnus will give itself +2/+1 and flying even if it’s somehow not a Vampire.

04/15/13

If the top card of your library changes while you’re casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, the new top card won’t be revealed until you finish doing so.

10/01/09

To work as an evasion ability, an attacking creature must already have flying when the declare blockers step begins. Once a creature has become blocked, giving it flying won’t change that.
