This card, Tainted Remedy, would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's life gain strategies, such as decks that rely on lifelink creatures or life gain spells. While Tainted Remedy can be effective in certain matchups, there are better alternatives like Rain of Gore or Sulfuric Vortex that provide more consistent and powerful life loss effects. Overall, Tainted Remedy could see play in specific sideboard situations but may not be a staple in most decks due to its narrow focus and limited impact in certain matchups.

Rules

06/22/15

If more than one replacement effect tries to apply to a life gain event, the player who would gain life chooses the order in which they apply. For example, if a player who controls Alhammarret’s Archive would gain 3 life while Tainted Remedy is on the battlefield, that player may choose to have the 3 life become doubled to 6 life and then lose 6 life. The player may also choose to apply Tainted Remedy first, turning “gain 3 life” into “lose 3 life.” Alhammarret’s Archive would then not apply.
