About Phalanx Formation
Phalanx Formation, Instant, designed by Dan Murayama Scott first released in May, 2020 in the set Journey into Nyx. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.49.
A deck focused on aggressive strategies and combat-based win conditions, such as a Boros or White Weenie deck, would benefit from including Phalanx Formation as it can provide a powerful combat boost by granting double strike to multiple creatures. However, there are potentially better options available, such as Boros Charm or Temur Battle Rage, which offer similar effects with additional versatility or efficiency. Phalanx Formation could see play as a situational combat trick in specific deck archetypes that prioritize combat damage.
Rules
04/26/14
If a spell or ability allows you to cast a strive spell without paying its mana cost, you must pay the additional costs for any targets beyond the first.
04/26/14
If all of the spell’s targets are illegal when the spell tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. If one or more of its targets are legal when it tries to resolve, the spell will resolve and affect only those legal targets. It will have no effect on any illegal targets.
04/26/14
You choose how many targets each spell with a strive ability has and what those targets are as you cast it. It’s legal to cast such a spell with no targets, although this is rarely a good idea. You can’t choose the same target more than once for a single strive spell.
