About Tombstalker

Tombstalker, Creature — demon, designed by Aleksi Briclot first released in May, 2007 in the set Future Sight and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.29.

This Tombstalker card would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on filling up the graveyard quickly, such as a self-mill or graveyard recursion deck. Its Delve ability allows you to cast it for a reduced cost by exiling cards from your graveyard, making it a strong late-game threat. However, there are potentially better options like Gurmag Angler, which has a similar Delve ability but comes with a larger body for the same cost, making it a more efficient choice in most cases. Whether Tombstalker should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, but it could certainly have a place in the right build.

Rules

03/19/21

Because delve isn’t an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs, such as flashback. It can also be used to pay for additional costs that include generic mana.

03/19/21

Delve doesn’t change a spell’s mana cost or converted mana cost. For example, Treasure Cruise’s converted mana cost is 8 even if you exiled three cards to cast it.

06/07/13

Delve reduces only the generic mana requirement of the spell.
