About Living End
Living End, Sorcery, designed by Greg Staples first released in Oct, 2006 in the set Time Spiral and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 458.97. It's a key card in 4 combos.
A deck focused on graveyard recursion and sacrificing creatures for value, such as a Golgari or Rakdos sacrifice deck in Magic: The Gathering, would benefit from including Living End. While Living End can be a powerful card in the right deck, there are other similar cards like Living Death or Dread Return that may offer more flexibility or consistency. Ultimately, whether Living End should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck it's being considered for.
Rules
03/19/21
A card with no mana cost can’t be cast normally; you’ll need a way to cast it for an alternative cost or without paying its mana cost, such as by suspending it.
03/19/21
If an effect refers to a “suspended card,” that means a card that (1) has suspend, (2) is in exile, and (3) has one or more time counters on it.
03/19/21
If you can’t cast the card, perhaps because there are no legal targets available, it remains exiled with no time counters on it, and it’s no longer suspended.
03/19/21
When the last time counter is removed, the second triggered ability of suspend triggers. It doesn’t matter why the last time counter was removed or what effect removed it.
03/19/21
You are never forced to activate mana abilities to pay costs, so if there is a mandatory additional mana cost (such as from Thalia, Guardian of Thraben), you can decline to activate mana abilities to pay for it and hence fail to cast the suspended card, leaving it in exile.
03/19/21
You can exile a card in your hand using suspend any time you could cast that card. Consider its card type, any effects that modify when you could cast it (such as flash) and any other effects that stop you from casting it (such as from Meddling Mage’s ability) to determine if and when you can do this. Whether you could actually complete all steps in casting the card is irrelevant. For example, you can exile a card with suspend that has no mana cost or that requires a target even if no legal targets are available at that time.
03/19/21
“All cards they exiled this way” refers only to the cards exiled in the first part of the effect. If a replacement effect (such as that of Leyline of the Void) exiles any of the sacrificed creatures instead of putting them into the graveyard, those cards aren’t returned to the battlefield.
09/20/16
This has no mana cost, which means its mana cost can’t be paid for effects such as replicate from Djinn Illuminatus or flashback from Snapcaster Mage.
06/07/13
A creature cast using suspend will enter the battlefield with haste. It will have haste until another player gains control of it (or, in some rare cases, gains control of the creature spell itself).
06/07/13
Although originally printed with a characteristic-defining ability that defined its color, this card now has a color indicator. This color indicator can’t be affected by text-changing effects (such as the one created by Crystal Spray), although color-changing effects can still overwrite it.
06/07/13
Exiling a card with suspend isn’t casting that card. This action doesn’t use the stack and can’t be responded to.
06/07/13
If the first triggered ability of suspend (the one that removes time counters) is countered, no time counter is removed. The ability will trigger again during the card’s owner’s next upkeep.
06/07/13
If the second triggered ability of suspend (the one that lets you cast the card) is countered, the card can’t be cast. It remains exiled with no time counters on it, and it’s no longer suspended.
09/25/06
“All cards they exiled this way” refers only to the cards exiled in the first part of the effect. If a replacement effect (such as Leyline of the Void) exiles any of the sacrificed creatures instead of putting them into the graveyard, those cards aren’t returned to the battlefield.
