About Monstrous Onslaught

Monstrous Onslaught, Sorcery, designed by Slawomir Maniak first released in Jan, 2017 in the set Aether Revolt and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.52.

A deck that focuses on building a board presence with high-power creatures would benefit from using Monstrous Onslaught, as it can deal a significant amount of damage to multiple target creatures based on the greatest power among your own creatures. However, in a competitive Magic: the Gathering environment, there are potentially better cards like Craterhoof Behemoth or Finale of Devastation that can provide more impactful and immediate board presence or finisher potential. Whether Monstrous Onslaught should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck it is being considered for.

Rules

11/10/20

If some of the targets become illegal, the original division of damage still applies. The damage that was divided among the illegal targets simply isn’t dealt; it isn’t re-assigned to remaining legal targets.

11/10/20

You divide the damage among the target creatures as you cast Monstrous Onslaught. Each target must be assigned at least 1 damage.
