About Skullcage

Skullcage, Artifact, designed by Ron Spencer first released in Jun, 2004 in the set Fifth Dawn and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.58.

A deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's hand size, such as a discard-heavy black deck or a control deck aiming to limit the opponent's resources, would benefit from using Skullcage. While Skullcage can be effective in certain situations, there are potentially better options like Liliana's Caress or The Rack that provide more consistent and impactful damage based on hand size. Whether Skullcage should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as well as the overall metagame it is being played in.
