About Self-Destruct
Self-Destruct, Instant, designed by Liiga Smilshkalne first released in May, 2025 in the set Final Fantasy. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.37.
A mono-red aggressive deck focusing on high-power creatures, such as red dragons or goblins, would benefit most from Self-Destruct in Magic: The Gathering. However, a better alternative would be cards like Fling, which don't cause damage to your own creature. Self-Destruct could see situational play in decks looking for direct damage or combo potential but may be too risky for consistent use.
