About Gorilla Shaman

Gorilla Shaman, Creature — ape shaman, designed by Anthony S. Waters first released in Jun, 1996 in the set Alliances and was printed exactly in 7 different ways. It see play in 3 formats: Pauper, Commander and Alchemy. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.11.

Gorilla Shaman would be a valuable addition to a red deck focused on artifact destruction, providing a cost-effective way to target noncreature artifacts of various mana values. While it can be useful in certain matchups, there are arguably better options such as Shattering Spree or Smash to Smithereens that offer more versatility or efficiency. Ultimately, Gorilla Shaman could see play in specific sideboard strategies or metas where its ability shines, but may not be a staple in every red deck.
