About Ashes of the Abhorrent

Ashes of the Abhorrent, Enchantment, designed by Daarken first released in Sep, 2017 in the set Ixalan Promos and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 5.53.

This card, Ashes of the Abhorrent, would be beneficial in a white-based control deck that aims to disrupt graveyard strategies, gain incremental life, and slow down opponent's game plan. While it can be effective in certain matchups, there are potentially better options like Rest in Peace or Leyline of the Void that completely shut down graveyard strategies. Whether Ashes of the Abhorrent should see play depends on the specific metagame and how prevalent graveyard strategies are in the current environment.
