About Thwart the Grave

Thwart the Grave, Sorcery, designed by Wylie Beckert first released in Sep, 2020 in the set Zendikar Rising and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.71.

A deck that focuses on assembling a diverse party of Cleric, Rogue, Warrior, and Wizard creatures would benefit the most from including Thwart the Grave, as it can potentially be cast for a reduced cost depending on the number of creatures in your party. However, there are other cards like Rally the Ancestors or Return to the Ranks that might offer more consistent value in certain situations. Thwart the Grave could see play in a deck that can reliably fill its graveyard with the necessary creature types and take advantage of its potential cost reduction.

Rules

09/25/20

If a creature has more than one party creature type, and there are multiple ways to count that creature that could result in a different number of creatures in your party, the highest such number is used. For example, if you control a Cleric and a Cleric Wizard, the number of creatures in your party is two. You can’t choose to have it be just one by counting the Cleric Wizard first as a Cleric.

09/25/20

Several cards have a cost reduction based on the number of creatures in your party. To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you’re paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The converted mana cost of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

09/25/20

Thwart the Grave’s first target doesn’t have to be one of the party creature types.
