About Greater Good

Greater Good, Enchantment, designed by Pete Venters first released in Oct, 1998 in the set Urza's Saga and was printed exactly in 13 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 5.02. It's a key card in 3 combos.

A deck that focuses on generating tokens or has access to high-power creatures would benefit from Greater Good, as it allows for card draw and potential card selection. However, the high mana cost and the requirement to sacrifice a creature may limit its effectiveness in faster or more aggressive decks. Other cards like Life's Legacy or Momentous Fall offer similar effects at a lower cost or with additional benefits, making them potentially better options depending on the deck's strategy and needs. Overall, Greater Good could see play in certain midrange or control decks that can take advantage of its abilities effectively.
