About Tangle Angler

Tangle Angler, Creature — phyrexian horror, designed by Igor Kieryluk first released in May, 2020 in the set Scars of Mirrodin.

This card, Tangle Angler, would be beneficial in a deck focused on utilizing infect mechanics to quickly defeat opponents by dealing poison counters. While it can be effective in certain situations, there are potentially better options like Blight Mamba or Glistener Elf that offer more versatility or evasion. Whether Tangle Angler should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, but it could be a valuable addition for a dedicated infect deck looking to apply pressure early in the game.

Rules

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 you attack with Tangle Angler but a creature you targeted with its activated ability isn’t able to block it (for example, because an effect has granted Tangle Angler intimidate and the other creature is white), the other creature is free to block whichever creature its controller chooses, or block no creatures at all.

01/01/11

The -1/-1 counters remain on the creature indefinitely. They’re not removed if the creature regenerates or the turn ends.

01/01/11

You may activate Tangle Angler’s second ability multiple times in a turn to force multiple creatures to block it.
