About Whale of the Tale

Whale of the Tale, Creature — Whale, designed by None first released in Jun, 2020 in the set Core Set 2021. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 7.88.

Whale of the Tale would fit well in a control or tempo deck that seeks to disrupt opponents while maintaining board presence, as it generates aggressive Pirate tokens that force opponents to attack and can be used to divert their attention from your own strategy. However, there are arguably better options for this role, such as Teferi, Hero of Dominaria, which provides card advantage and board control without the downside of giving your opponents creatures. While Whale of the Tale has a unique effect, its high mana cost and the potential for opponents to benefit from the tokens may limit its effectiveness, suggesting it might not see significant play in competitive environments.
