About Death Watch

Death Watch, Enchantment — aura, designed by Brian Horton first released in May, 2020 in the set Visions. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.49.

This card, Death Watch, would benefit a deck that focuses on sacrificing creatures or controlling the board by trading creatures. Decks that utilize sacrifice effects, recursion, or token strategies could find value in this card as it provides life gain and loss triggers upon a creature's death. While Death Watch can be situationally powerful in the right deck, there are indeed stronger options available such as cards like Phyrexian Arena or Bitterblossom that provide consistent card advantage or token generation. Whether Death Watch should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck it is included in.
