About Labyrinth Guardian

Labyrinth Guardian, Creature — illusion warrior, designed by Yeong-Hao Han first released in Apr, 2017 in the set Amonkhet and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.37.

This card would benefit a control deck that focuses on protecting key creatures and disrupting the opponent's spells, as the ability to create a token copy of Labyrinth Guardian can provide resilience against removal spells. While Labyrinth Guardian has its uses, a potentially better alternative could be Spellskite, which can redirect spells targeting any creature you control, offering more versatility and protection. However, Labyrinth Guardian could still see play in specific strategies that require creature recursion and protection.

Rules

07/14/17

Once you’ve activated an embalm ability, the card is immediately exiled. Opponents can’t try to stop the ability by exiling the card with an effect such as that of Crook of Condemnatnion.

04/18/17

For each card with embalm, a corresponding game play supplement token can be found in some Amonkhet booster packs. These supplements are not required to play with cards with embalm; you can use the same items to represent an embalmed token as you would any other token.

04/18/17

The token is a Zombie in addition to its other types and is white instead of its other colors. It has no mana cost, and thus its converted mana cost is 0. These are copiable values of the token that other effects may copy.

04/18/17

You’ll sacrifice Labyrinth Guardian even if you counter the spell that targets it. If that spell has no other targets, it’ll be countered when it tries to resolve.
