About Blood Cultist

Blood Cultist, Creature — human wizard, designed by Karl Kopinski first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 94.25.

This card would be beneficial in a deck focused on dealing direct damage and utilizing +1/+1 counters synergies. It could fit well in a Rakdos aggro or midrange deck looking to control the board with targeted creature removal while also growing a threat. While Blood Cultist offers a unique ability, there are potentially better options like Young Pyromancer or Grim Lavamancer that provide more immediate impact or versatility, so its inclusion would depend on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck.

Rules

10/01/08

Each time a creature is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, check whether Blood Cultist had dealt any damage to it at any time during that turn. (This includes combat damage.) If so, Blood Cultist’s second ability will trigger. It doesn’t matter who controlled the creature or whose graveyard it was put into.
