About Grell Philosopher
Grell Philosopher, Creature — horror wizard, designed by David Astruga first released in maj 2022 in the set Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 format: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 6,77.
This card would benefit a deck focused on controlling artifacts and utilizing their abilities, especially in a multiplayer setting where opponents have powerful artifacts. While Grell Philosopher offers a unique and versatile ability, it could potentially be outshined by cards like Clever Impersonator, which can copy any artifact on the battlefield without limitations, making it a more versatile choice for artifact-based strategies. However, Grell Philosopher could still see play in decks looking for a more budget-friendly option or seeking a specific synergy with horror creatures and activated abilities.
Rules
10/06/2022
Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written “[Cost]: [Effect].” Some keywords are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text.
10/06/2022
Grell Philosopher causes Horrors to gain only activated abilities. They don't gain keyword abilities (unless those keyword abilities are activated), triggered abilities, or static abilities.
10/06/2022
The granted abilities effectively use “this permanent” rather than “[that card's name],” so you treat the abilities as if they were printed on the creature that gained the ability. For example, say the artifact was Universal Solvent, which has the ability “{7}, {T}, Sacrifice Universal Solvent: Destroy target permanent.” If Grell Philosopher gained that ability, you'd treat it as though it said “{7}, {T}, Sacrifice Grell Philosopher: Destroy target permanent.”
