Description
Spelldrain Assassin stands as a formidable threat in the Magic: The Gathering Alchemy: New Capenna set, identified by the set code YSNC and card number 29. Released in 2022, this digital expansion brings the noir-inspired aesthetics of the New Capenna city to life, and Spelldrain Assassin embodies that dark, criminal underworld theme as a three-mana Creature — Vampire Assassin. With a mana value of three, this card provides immediate impact on the battlefield, featuring a robust 3/3 power and toughness stat line that demands attention from opponents. The card’s primary appeal lies in its unique triggered ability. When Spelldrain Assassin enters the battlefield, players may choose an instant or sorcery card in their hand to perpetually gain casualty 2. This mechanic allows for significant value generation by copying spells while sacrificing a creature with power 2 or greater, offering strategic depth for both offensive pushes and defensive maneuvers. As a Mythic Rare, this card is highly sought after by collectors aiming to complete the Alchemy: New Capenna set or by players looking to enhance their digital gameplay experience on the Alchemy platform. Its vibrant color identity of blue, black, and red makes it a versatile addition to any control or midrange deck strategy.
