About Ominous Sphinx

Ominous Sphinx, Creature — sphinx, designed by Lars Grant-West first released in Jul, 2017 in the set Hour of Devastation and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.22.

The Ominous Sphinx card would benefit a control deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's creatures while drawing cards through cycling or discarding. However, there are better options like Curator of Mysteries that offer a similar effect with additional benefits, making it more versatile and powerful in a deck. Ultimately, Ominous Sphinx could see play in specific cycling or discard-focused decks, but it may not be the optimal choice for competitive play due to stronger alternatives available.
