About Promising Duskmage

Promising Duskmage, Creature — human warlock, designed by Johan Grenier first released in Apr, 2021 in the set Strixhaven: School of Mages. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.14.

This card would be a great fit for a black-based aggro deck that focuses on buffing creatures with +1/+1 counters. Decks that utilize cards like Hardened Scales or Winding Constrictor to increase the number of counters placed on creatures would benefit greatly from Promising Duskmage's ability to draw a card upon death. However, there are better cards with similar effects like Grim Haruspex or Midnight Reaper that provide additional benefits when creatures die, making them more versatile options in such decks. Overall, while Promising Duskmage could see play in specific strategies, there are more powerful alternatives available in the current card pool.
