About Rite of the Serpent

Rite of the Serpent, Sorcery, designed by Seb McKinnon first released in Sep, 2014 in the set Khans of Tarkir and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.01.

This card, Rite of the Serpent, would be beneficial in a black-green deck that focuses on +1/+1 counters and creature removal. It provides versatile removal options and can generate additional value by creating a 1/1 green Snake creature token if the targeted creature had a +1/+1 counter on it. While there may be more efficient removal spells available, the added benefit of creating a token makes Rite of the Serpent a viable option for decks looking to generate additional board presence. It could see play in decks that value both removal and token generation.
