About Savage Swipe

Savage Swipe, Sorcery, designed by David Gaillet first released in May, 2019 in the set Modern Horizons and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Pauper and Duel Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.33.

A deck that focuses on creatures with power 2 would benefit most from Savage Swipe, as it provides a power boost and removal in one card. However, there are better options for similar effects such as Prey Upon or Rabid Bite, which don't have the power restriction and can target any creature. While Savage Swipe can be situationally powerful, it may not see widespread play in competitive decks due to its limitations compared to other removal spells.
