Deadly Derision
Oracle Text
Destroy target creature or planeswalker. Create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "{T}, Sacrifice this token: Add one mana of any color.")
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Deadly Derision is a clean, brutally efficient removal spell that fits best in control and midrange-black shells, where trading one card for an opposing creature or planeswalker and getting a Treasure back keeps you ahead on resources. At four mana, it is not the cheapest answer, but the flexibility matters: it can remove a key threat at instant speed, then immediately refund some tempo by fixing colors or helping cast a follow-up spell a turn earlier. The Treasure also makes it especially attractive in decks that care about artifacts entering or being sacrificed, or in multicolor builds that want smoother mana after stabilizing. In game terms, it pairs well with reactive plans that aim to survive the early turns, then convert removal into a larger board presence or a finisher. The name and effect evoke a ruthless, opportunistic strike—one clean kill, one stolen advantage.
