About Cackling Observer

Cackling Observer, Creature — imp, designed by Gabor Szikszai first released in Mar, 2024 in the set Alchemy: Murders at Karlov Manor .

Cackling Observer would fit well in a control or midrange deck that focuses on hand disruption and tempo, as its ability to exile a nonland card from an opponent's hand can hinder their strategy while providing card advantage when it leaves the battlefield. However, there are arguably better options for similar effects, such as Thoughtseize for hand disruption or Nihil Spellbomb for card draw and graveyard hate, depending on the deck's needs. While Cackling Observer has unique synergies, especially in a deck that can recur it or manipulate the battlefield, its overall effectiveness may be overshadowed by more efficient cards, making it a less common choice in competitive play.
