About Thirsting Axe

Thirsting Axe, Artifact — equipment, designed by Bastien L. Deharme first released in Jul, 2016 in the set Eldritch Moon. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.35.

A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and wants to quickly close out games would benefit from using Thirsting Axe, as it provides a significant power boost to the equipped creature. However, the drawback of sacrificing it if the creature doesn't deal combat damage can be a significant downside. In comparison, cards like Embercleave offer a similar power boost but without the sacrifice condition, making it a more versatile and reliable option for aggressive decks. Thirsting Axe could see play in specific niche decks that can mitigate its drawback, but overall, there are better options available for most decks.

Rules
