About Spiteful Squad

Spiteful Squad, Creature — human warlock, designed by Manuel Castañón first released in Apr, 2021 in the set Strixhaven: School of Mages. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.40.

This card would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on sacrificing creatures or utilizing +1/+1 counters, such as a sacrifice or aristocrats deck. While Spiteful Squad provides value upon death by transferring its counters to another creature, there are potentially better cards like Blood Artist or Geralf's Messenger that offer more immediate impact or synergy with sacrifice strategies. Whether Spiteful Squad should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, but it could be a solid inclusion for decks looking to capitalize on +1/+1 counters and creature sacrifice mechanics.

Rules

04/16/21

If Spiteful Squad has -1/-1 counters on it when it dies, the last ability will include those as well. This may result in the recipient also dying. Spiteful indeed.

04/16/21

Spiteful Squad’s ability doesn’t cause you to move counters from itself to the target creature. Rather, you put the same number of each kind of counter Spiteful Squad had when it died onto that creature.
