Sleep of the Dead, Sorcery, designed by Kari Christensen first released in Jan, 2020 in the set Theros Beyond Death. It see play in 1 formats: Pauper.
A control deck focused on tempo and graveyard recursion would benefit from including Sleep of the Dead in its strategy. While Sleep of the Dead offers a cost-effective way to temporarily neutralize a threat on the board, there are potentially better options available such as cards with more versatile effects or stronger impact on the game. Whether Sleep of the Dead should see play ultimately depends on the specific dynamics and goals of the deck it is being considered for.

If a card has multiple abilities giving you permission to cast it, such as two escape abilities or an escape ability and a flashback ability, you choose which one to apply. The others have no effect.

If a card with escape is put into your graveyard during your turn, you’ll be able to cast it right away if it’s legal to do so, before an opponent can take any actions.

Sleep of the Dead can target a creature that’s already tapped. That creature won’t untap during its controller’s next untap step.

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you’re paying (such as an escape cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The converted mana cost of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was and no matter whether an alternative cost was paid.
