About Ruin Ghost

Ruin Ghost, Creature — spirit, designed by Jason A. Engle first released in Feb, 2010 in the set Worldwake. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.80. It's a key card in 4 combos.

This Ruin Ghost card would be beneficial in a control deck that focuses on manipulating lands for strategic advantage, such as landfall or land destruction decks. While Ruin Ghost offers a unique ability to repeatedly exile and return lands, it may not be as efficient as other options like Stonecloaker or Flickerwisp in terms of utility and versatility. However, Ruin Ghost could still see play as a niche card in specific land-focused strategies or as a budget alternative in casual formats.

Rules

03/01/10

As Ruin Ghost’s ability resolves, the targeted land is exiled, then immediately returned to the battlefield. The land that enters the battlefield is a different permanent from the one that left. Any counters, Auras, and so on that were affecting the old land won’t affect the new one. Any spells or abilities that were targeting the old land don’t target the new one. Whether the old land was tapped or untapped has no bearing on the new one.

03/01/10

The land returns under your control, regardless of who owns it.
