About Lithophage

Lithophage, Creature — insect, designed by Mike Ploog first released in Oct, 1999 in the set Mercadian Masques and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.75.

This card, Lithophage, could be beneficial in a red aggressive deck that aims to quickly overwhelm the opponent with creatures and damage. However, the drawback of having to sacrifice a Mountain each turn could hinder its effectiveness in the long run. There are likely better cards available that offer similar effects without the downside of sacrificing lands, such as Goblin Guide or Monastery Swiftspear, which are commonly seen in competitive red decks and provide more consistent value without the risk of losing resources. Overall, Lithophage may not see much play in competitive decks due to its restrictive nature and better alternatives available.
