About Essence Pulse

Essence Pulse, Sorcery, designed by Kieran Yanner first released in Apr, 2021 in the set Commander 2021 and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.81.

A deck focused on gaining life consistently, such as a lifegain deck in a black-white color combination, would benefit from using Essence Pulse. This card can be particularly effective in a deck that can reliably gain a significant amount of life in a turn, leading to a powerful board wipe effect. However, there are potentially better options like Damnation or Languish for more efficient board wipes in black, so the decision to include Essence Pulse would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck.

Rules

04/16/21

This ability counts the total amount of life gained without considering any life you lost during that turn. For example, if you lost 3 life and gained 3 life earlier in the turn, you will gain 2 more life from Essence Pulse and each creature will get -5/-5.
