About Searing Spear Askari

Searing Spear Askari, Creature — human knight, designed by Richard Kane Ferguson first released in Oct, 1996 in the set Mirage.

A deck that focuses on aggressive red strategies and combat tricks would benefit from using Searing Spear Askari, as it can apply pressure with its flanking ability and become harder to block with menace. However, there may be better options available depending on the specific deck's strategy and synergy. Cards like Stormblood Berserker or Goblin Guide could potentially offer more consistent and impactful aggression, so Searing Spear Askari may not see play in all competitive decks, but could still be a fun and flavorful inclusion for casual play.

Rules

The ability only does something if used before blockers are declared. You can use it afterwards but to no useful effect.
