About Giant Mantis

Giant Mantis, Creature — insect, designed by Randy Gallegos first released in May, 2020 in the set Mirage and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.09.

This Giant Mantis card would be beneficial in a green-based deck that focuses on defense and controlling the board against flying creatures. While it provides a solid blocker with Reach, there are potentially better options like Thornweald Archer, which not only has Reach but also has the ability to deal damage to flying creatures. Whether Giant Mantis should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, but it could be a decent inclusion in the right context.
