About Blood Scrivener

Blood Scrivener, Creature — zombie wizard, designed by Peter Mohrbacher first released in May, 2020 in the set Dragon's Maze. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.97.

This card, Blood Scrivener, would benefit a deck that focuses on emptying its hand quickly and drawing a lot of cards. Decks that utilize cards with abilities triggered by having no cards in hand, such as Hellbent or Madness mechanics, would find Blood Scrivener useful. However, there are better alternatives like Dark Confidant, which provides card advantage without the life loss drawback, making it a more popular choice in competitive play. Blood Scrivener could still see play in more casual or themed decks that aim to capitalize on its unique ability.

Rules

04/15/13

Any time you are instructed to draw more than one card, you draw them one at a time. For example, if you control Blood Scrivener and have no cards in hand and you’re instructed to “draw two cards,” your first card draw is replaced by drawing two cards and losing 1 life, then you’ll draw the second card from the original instruction. In total, you’ll draw three cards and lose 1 life.
