About Consecrated Sphinx

Consecrated Sphinx, Creature — sphinx, designed by Mark Zug first released in Feb, 2011 in the set Mirrodin Besieged and was printed exactly in 10 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Casual.

A deck that focuses on drawing cards and controlling the game would greatly benefit from including Consecrated Sphinx, as it provides a powerful card advantage engine. While there may be other cards that offer similar effects like Rhystic Study or Mystic Remora, Consecrated Sphinx's ability to draw two cards for each card drawn by an opponent is particularly potent, making it a strong contender for inclusion in decks that aim to outvalue their opponents through card advantage. Its high mana cost may be a drawback in faster formats, but in slower, more controlling decks, Consecrated Sphinx can be a game-changer and is definitely worth considering for play.
