About River Serpent

River Serpent, Creature — serpent, designed by Christopher Moeller first released in Apr, 2017 in the set Amonkhet and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

A deck that focuses on self-mill or graveyard strategies would benefit from including River Serpent, as it requires a certain number of cards in the graveyard to attack. This card can be useful in decks that aim to fill their graveyard quickly and efficiently, allowing the player to cycle through their deck while also potentially enabling the River Serpent to become an effective attacker. However, there are other cards like Hooting Mandrills or Gurmag Angler that offer similar benefits with potentially easier conditions to meet, making them stronger choices in many cases. Ultimately, whether River Serpent sees play will depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck it is included in.
