Mephitic Draught
Oracle Text
When this artifact enters or is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you draw a card and you lose 1 life.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Mephitic Draught is a classic value piece for black decks that want their cards to replace themselves while advancing a slow, attrition-based game plan. At just {1}{B}, it smooths early draws and makes sacrifice or artifact-recursion shells especially appealing, since it pays you again when it hits the graveyard from the battlefield. That means it pairs naturally with sacrifice outlets, blink-style artifact recursion, and effects that can repeatedly pick it up and redeploy it for steady card flow. The life loss is real, but in control or midrange builds it is usually a fair price for guaranteed advantage, especially in a game where resource exchange matters more than raw speed. The name and setting evoke something toxic and underhanded, fitting Ixalan’s dangerous underground atmosphere, but the real strength here is practical: it turns almost any removal spell, sacrifice trigger, or board wipe into a small refund.
