About Dregscape Zombie

Dregscape Zombie, Creature — zombie, designed by Lars Grant-West first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.06.

This Dregscape Zombie card would be beneficial in a black-based aggro or midrange deck that aims to apply pressure on the opponent early in the game. Its ability to return from the graveyard with haste can surprise the opponent and potentially deal damage quickly. While there may be other cards with similar effects, the efficiency of Dregscape Zombie's Unearth ability at a low mana cost makes it a solid inclusion in decks looking for recurring threats. It should see play in decks that can take advantage of its aggressive nature and graveyard recursion.

Rules

10/01/08

At the beginning of the end step, a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Stifle or Voidslime that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the creature will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won’t trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the creature when it eventually leaves the battlefield.

10/01/08

If a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it’s exiled instead — unless the spell or ability that’s causing the creature to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If it later returns the creature card to the battlefield (as Oblivion Ring or Flickerwisp might, for example), the creature card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.

10/01/08

If you activate a card’s unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.
