About Carnophage

Carnophage, Creature — zombie, designed by Pete Venters first released in Jun, 1998 in the set Exodus and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.36.

A deck that aims to apply early pressure and doesn't mind paying life for resources, such as aggressive black decks or decks that can easily gain life back, would benefit from using Carnophage. While Carnophage can be effective in certain strategies, there are arguably better options like Sarcomancy or Diregraf Ghoul that offer similar aggressive starts without the life payment drawback, making Carnophage less likely to see play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.
