Ichor Rats, Creature — phyrexian rat, designed by Matt Stewart first released in Oct, 2010 in the set Scars of Mirrodin and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
A deck that focuses on utilizing infect mechanics or aims to win through poison counters would benefit from including Ichor Rats, as it helps to quickly accumulate poison counters on opponents. However, in competitive Magic: the Gathering environments, there are generally more efficient cards for achieving similar effects, such as Plague Stinger or Glistener Elf, which have better stats for their cost and can provide faster clock for poison win conditions. While Ichor Rats may not see widespread play in competitive decks, it can still be a fun and flavorful inclusion in casual or themed decks centered around infect strategies.
01/01/11
A player who has ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action.
01/01/11
If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a player is prevented, that player doesn’t get poison counters. If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a creature is prevented, that creature doesn’t get -1/-1 counters.
01/01/11
If Ichor Rats’s last ability causes each player to have ten poison counters, the game is a draw.
01/01/11
The -1/-1 counters remain on the creature indefinitely. They’re not removed if the creature regenerates or the turn ends.
