About Whim of Volrath

Whim of Volrath, Instant, designed by Anthony S. Waters first released in Oct, 1997 in the set Tempest. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 15.59. It's a key card in 2 combos.

The Whim of Volrath card can be a valuable utility card in a blue-based control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's strategy by altering color or land type properties of key permanents. While it offers flexibility in customization, the situational nature of its effect might limit its overall impact. Cards like Vedalken Shackles or Vedalken Plotter may provide more consistent control options, making them potentially better choices for competitive play. Whim of Volrath could still see situational use in specific metas or casual decks focused on disruptive interactions.
