{1}{R}: This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn. When this creature dies, it deals damage equal to its power to target creature an opponent controls.
Predicted power
Standard — Eng.NLUsr.—
Pioneer — Eng.NLUsr.—
Modern 15 Eng.FUsr.—

A 2-mana 1/1 needs extra mana plus a death setup to become removal; that rate is far below Modern’s normal creature and interaction bar.

Band speculativeConfidence 72%

Could be wrong if An efficient sacrifice shell or unusual damage-multiplying interaction could make its death trigger worth testing.

Legacy 11 Eng.FUsr.—

Legacy's efficient threats and removal leave little room for a 1/1 that needs substantial mana and setup merely to trade for creatures.

Band unplayableConfidence 78%

Could be wrong if A niche sacrifice-combo interaction could provide a use not visible in supplied context.

Pauper — Eng.NLUsr.—
Commander 23 Eng.FUsr.—

Sacrifice decks can turn spare mana into creature damage, but this is a fragile 1/1 and highly inefficient beside stronger sacrifice payoffs.

Best home Red sacrifice decksBand speculativeConfidence 68%

Could be wrong if Reliable free sacrifice outlets and power-doubling effects could make the damage ceiling more useful than expected.

Limited 53 Eng.CUsr.—

The 1/1 body is poor, but mana can let it trade up and its death trigger can finish another creature; it is a conditional two-for-one threat.

Best home Red creature decksBand playableConfidence 42%

Could be wrong if Unknown speed, creature sizing, and removal determine whether opponents can simply ignore or cheaply remove it.

Mana-sink death trigger

“A weak body whose scalable death trigger needs both mana and a sacrifice/combat setup, leaving it mostly a Limited card.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
