About Cackling Slasher

Cackling Slasher, Creature — human assassin, designed by Johann Bodin first released in Sep, 2024 in the set Duskmourn: House of Horror. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

Cackling Slasher fits well in a black midrange or sacrifice-themed deck that aims to control the board while utilizing creature death as a resource, such as decks featuring cards like Mayhem Devil or Witch's Oven to trigger its ability. While it can be a solid addition, there are arguably better options like Murderous Rider, which offers both removal and a creature on the other side, or Gutterbones, which provides recurring value. Overall, Cackling Slasher can see play in specific builds that capitalize on creature deaths, but it may be outclassed by more versatile or impactful cards in competitive formats.
