About Eternal of Harsh Truths

Eternal of Harsh Truths, Creature — zombie cleric, designed by Izzy first released in Jul, 2017 in the set Hour of Devastation and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.35.

A deck focused on aggressive, evasive strategies like tempo or aggro-control would benefit from including Eternal of Harsh Truths, as it provides card advantage and punishes opponents for blocking. However, there may be better options depending on the specific deck archetype and format, such as Delver of Secrets in tempo decks or Dark Confidant in midrange strategies. Overall, Eternal of Harsh Truths could see play in the right deck, but its effectiveness would depend on the overall strategy and card pool available.

Rules

07/14/17

Afflict causes the defending player to lose life; it’s not damage or combat damage.

07/14/17

Afflict resolves before combat damage is dealt. If this loss of life brings a player to 0 life or less, that player loses the game immediately. A blocking creature with lifelink won’t deal combat damage in time to save that player.

07/14/17

An ability that triggers when something “attacks and isn’t blocked” triggers in the declare blockers step after blockers are declared if (1) that creature is attacking and (2) no creatures are declared to block it. It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step.
