About Painter's Servant
Painter's Servant, Artifact creature — scarecrow, designed by Mike Dringenberg first released in May, 2008 in the set Shadowmoor and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 257.70. It's a key card in 12 combos.
A deck that heavily relies on color-specific strategies, such as a mono-colored deck looking to exploit color-based synergies or a deck that aims to shut down opponents' strategies based on color, would benefit from including Painter's Servant. While Painter's Servant can be a powerful tool in certain matchups, it also has the drawback of potentially helping opponents who may have cards that benefit from being a specific color. Other cards like Blood Moon or Magus of the Moon might be better options for color manipulation in certain decks, depending on the specific strategy and meta. Overall, Painter's Servant could see play in niche decks that can capitalize on its unique effect, but careful consideration is needed to ensure it doesn't inadvertently benefit opponents more than oneself.
Rules
05/01/08
Each card becomes a new object as it changes zones, so this effect will apply to it from scratch in the new zone. Zone-change replacement abilities that care about the new color (like “[color] permanents enter the battlefield tapped”) won’t work because those effects are applied as the card is entering its new zone. Zone-change triggered abilities that care about the new color (like “when a [color] permanent enters the battlefield” or “when you cast a [color] spell”) will work because those effects apply after the card is already in its new zone.
05/01/08
The effects of multiple Painter’s Servants are cumulative.
05/01/08
This ability affects every card in every game zone, all tokens on the battlefield, and all spell copies on the stack, regardless of who controls or owns them.
