About Master of Cruelties

Master of Cruelties, Creature — demon, designed by Chase Stone first released in May, 2013 in the set Dragon's Maze and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 2.66. It's a key card in 7 combos.

A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and quick wins would benefit from including Master of Cruelties, as it can drastically reduce an opponent's life total in just one attack. However, due to its restriction of attacking alone, it may not fit well in decks that rely on overwhelming the opponent with multiple creatures. While Master of Cruelties can be a powerful finisher in the right deck, there are potentially better options depending on the overall strategy, such as cards like Tainted Strike or Grafted Exoskeleton for infect decks, which can also quickly reduce an opponent's life total to zero. Ultimately, whether Master of Cruelties should see play depends on the specific deck and playstyle of the player.

Rules

04/15/13

An ability that triggers when something “attacks and isn’t blocked” triggers in the declare blockers step after blockers are declared if (1) that creature is attacking and (2) no creatures are declared to block it. It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step.

04/15/13

For a player’s life total to become 1, what actually happens is that the player loses (or in some rare cases, gains) the appropriate amount of life. For example, if the player’s life total is 4 when the last ability resolves, it will cause that player to lose 3 life. Other effects that interact with life loss (or gain) will interact with this effect accordingly.

04/15/13

If Master of Cruelties attacks alone, another creature entering the battlefield attacking will have no effect on it. Master of Cruelties continues to be an attacking creature. The other attacking creature will assign combat damage normally, regardless of whether Master of Cruelties’s last ability triggers.
