About Cephalid Sage

Cephalid Sage, Creature — cephalid, designed by Keith Garletts first released in Feb, 2002 in the set Torment and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.13.

A deck that focuses on self-mill strategies or has ways to fill the graveyard quickly would benefit from using Cephalid Sage, as it can provide card advantage when the threshold condition is met. However, there are potentially better cards for similar effects, such as Mulldrifter or Thirst for Knowledge, which offer card draw without the condition of having a certain number of cards in the graveyard. Whether Cephalid Sage should see play would depend on the specific deck strategy and how effectively it can consistently meet the threshold requirement.
