Courtesy of Wizards of the Coast (WotC) and Clintus, check out a new massive token generator from Innistrad: Midnight Hunt — Ghoulcaller’s Harvest!
Create X 2/2 black Zombie creature tokens with decayed, where X is half the number of creature cards in your graveyard, rounded up.
Flashback 3BG
For just two mana, you can create a hoard of Zombies with the chance to play it again later. While the Zombie tokens have decayed and can only get one good attack in before going away, it’s tough to argue with the efficiency of two mana. The spell is cheap, but it’s unlikely to be played on the second turn unless it’s being combined with some self-mill or dredge effects in non-rotating formats.
Ghoulcaller’s Harvest could find a home in Standard in a graveyard-matters themed deck by fitting in the curve as double-spell turn enabler. By giving the controller a second shot at more Zombies it also offers a deck multiple shots at flooding the battlefield. Of course, it could also find a home in Zombie Commander deck or any deck that can give the tokens haste for a big shot or surprise damage.
What do you think of Ghoulcaller’s Harvest? Can this be leveraged in older formats or really only be a solid card in Standard?
Innistrad: Midnight Hunt is currently scheduled for release on September 24. View our official preview gallery.
