About Blood Lust

Blood Lust, Instant, designed by Anson Maddocks first released in Jun, 1994 in the set Legends and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.65.

Blood Lust could be beneficial in a red aggressive deck that aims to deal damage quickly, especially against high-toughness creatures. However, there are potentially better options like Lightning Bolt or Shock that offer more versatile and efficient removal. Blood Lust might see situational play in certain metagames, but overall, it may not be a top choice for competitive decks.

Rules

11/01/05

Has changed slightly in functionality, with the old continuous nature of the toughness reduction gone away; the toughness change remains static. For example, if you have three Swamps and Nightmare on the battlefield and then cast Blood Lust on it, it will become 7/1. If one of your Swamps is subsequently destroyed, your Nightmare will become 6/0 and be put in the graveyard.
