About Captain Howler, Sea Scourge

Captain Howler, Sea Scourge, Legendary creature — shark pirate, designed by Mirko Failoni first released in Jan, 2025 in the set Aetherdrift and was printed exactly in 3 different ways.

A deck that focuses on discarding cards and card advantage, such as a Grixis Control or Grixis Delver deck, would benefit from using Sea Scourge. Its ability to pump up a target creature for each card discarded and draw a card when that creature deals combat damage provides a strong synergy with a discard-heavy strategy. While Sea Scourge is a solid card for such decks, there may be better options depending on the specific deck archetype and strategy, such as Bedlam Reveler for card advantage or Enigma Drake for a more aggressive approach. Sea Scourge could see play in the right deck, but its effectiveness would depend on the overall strategy and synergy within the deck.
