About Killing Wave

Killing Wave, Sorcery, designed by Michael Komarck first released in May, 2020 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 20.18.

A deck that focuses on controlling the board by forcing opponents to sacrifice creatures or lose life would benefit from using Killing Wave. However, there are better alternatives like Damnation or Toxic Deluge, which offer more efficient board wipes without giving opponents the choice. While Killing Wave can be situational and potentially powerful in the right circumstances, it may not see as much play compared to these other options in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.

Rules
