About Specter's Wail

Specter's Wail, Sorcery, designed by Randy Gallegos first released in Oct, 1999 in the set Mercadian Masques. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.35.

A deck focused on disrupting the opponent's hand size and resources, such as a discard or control deck, would benefit from including Specter's Wail. However, there are more efficient options available, like Hymn to Tourach or Thoughtseize, which provide more impactful and targeted discard effects. While Specter's Wail may have situational uses, it is generally outclassed by other cards in terms of efficiency and effectiveness, making it less likely to see play in competitive decks.
