About Catacomb Sifter

Catacomb Sifter, Creature — eldrazi drone, designed by Craig J Spearing first released in Oct, 2015 in the set Battle for Zendikar and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.36.

Catacomb Sifter is a versatile card that can benefit a deck focused on sacrificing creatures for value, such as Aristocrats or Sacrifice decks in Magic: the Gathering. Its ability to generate Eldrazi Scion tokens and scry whenever a creature dies provides incremental advantage and helps with card selection. While there may be more powerful cards in similar decks, Catacomb Sifter can be a solid inclusion for its flexibility and synergy with sacrifice strategies, making it worth considering for play in the right deck.

Rules

08/25/15

Cards with devoid use frames that are variations of the transparent frame traditionally used for Eldrazi. The top part of the card features some color over a background based on the texture of the hedrons that once imprisoned the Eldrazi. This coloration is intended to aid deckbuilding and game play.

08/25/15

Eldrazi and Scion are each separate creature types. Anything that affects Eldrazi will affect these tokens, for example.

08/25/15

If a card loses devoid, it will still be colorless. This is because effects that change an object’s color (like the one created by devoid) are considered before the object loses devoid.

08/25/15

Other cards and abilities can give a card with devoid color. If that happens, it’s just the new color, not that color and colorless.

08/25/15

Some instants and sorceries that create Eldrazi Scions require targets. If all targets for such a spell have become illegal by the time that spell tries to resolve, the spell won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won’t get any Eldrazi Scions.
