About Phantasmal Fiend

Phantasmal Fiend, Creature — illusion, designed by Scott Kirschner first released in Jun, 1996 in the set Alliances and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.72.

This Phantasmal Fiend card could be beneficial in a deck focused on manipulating power and toughness to surprise opponents or trigger certain effects. It could work well in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's strategy by constantly changing the Fiend's stats. However, there are potentially better cards like Delver of Secrets that offer more consistent value and impact, so the Phantasmal Fiend may not see widespread play in competitive decks but could still be a fun and unpredictable addition to more casual or themed decks.

Rules

03/19/21

Effects that switch a creature’s power and toughness apply after all other effects, regardless of when those effects began to apply. For instance, if you target a 1/2 creature then give it +2/+0 later in the turn, it’s a 2/3 creature, not a 4/1 creature.

03/19/21

Switching a creature’s power and toughness twice (or any even number of times) effectively returns the creature to the power and toughness it had before any switches.

04/15/13

Effects that switch power and toughness apply after all other effects that change power and/or toughness, regardless of which effect was created first.

11/01/05

Note that the wording “Effects that alter the creature’s power alter its toughness instead, and vice versa, this turn” has been removed.
