Putrefy
Oracle Text
Destroy target artifact or creature. It can't be regenerated.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Putrefy is a classic Golgari answer spell that embodies the faction’s pragmatic, decaying philosophy: if something threatens the balance, it gets dragged down into rot. In gameplay, it shines best in midrange and control shells, where trading efficiently and keeping the board clean matter more than raw speed. At instant speed, it can break up combat, remove a key utility artifact, or eliminate a must-kill creature without risking regeneration tricks. Its flexibility makes it especially valuable in decks that want broad interaction over narrow hate, and it pairs neatly with sacrifice or graveyard-focused strategies that don’t mind grinding resources over time. A strong deckbuilding tip is to run Putrefy alongside discard or recursive threat packages, so you can strip away answers while maintaining pressure. In Commander and casual constructed alike, it remains a reliable two-for-one style tool when the metagame features artifact engines or resilient creatures.
