About Herald of War

Herald of War, Creature — angel, designed by Eric Deschamps first released in May, 2012 in the set Avacyn Restored and was printed exactly in 3 different ways.

A deck focused on angel and human tribal synergies would benefit most from including Herald of War, as it provides cost reduction for both types of spells and grows stronger with each attack. However, there are potentially better options for similar effects, such as Urza's Incubator for creature cost reduction or Cathars' Crusade for +1/+1 counter synergy across all creatures. Whether Herald of War should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck, as other cards may offer more immediate or versatile benefits.

Rules

05/01/12

If there are additional costs to cast a creature spell, such as a kicker cost, apply those increases before applying cost reductions.

05/01/12

The +1/+1 counter is put on Herald of War before blockers are declared and combat damage is dealt.
