Cryptborn Horror, Creature — horror, designed by Nils Hamm first released in May, 2020 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
A deck that focuses on dealing damage quickly and consistently to opponents would benefit from including Cryptborn Horror, as it can enter the battlefield with a significant number of +1/+1 counters based on the life lost by opponents in a single turn. While Cryptborn Horror can be a powerful finisher in aggressive decks, there are potentially better cards like Death's Shadow or Tarmogoyf that offer more consistent value or versatility. Whether Cryptborn Horror should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, but it can certainly be a fun and impactful inclusion for players looking to capitalize on opponents' life loss.

Cryptborn Horror cares about the total life lost, not necessarily what an opponent’s life total is compared to what it was at the beginning of the turn. For example, if an opponent loses 5 life and then gains 10 life on the turn Cryptborn Horror enters the battlefield, it will enter with five +1/+1 counters on it.

Remember, damage dealt to a player causes that player to lose that much life (unless the source has infect).
