About Blightbeetle

Blightbeetle, Creature — insect, designed by Jason Kang first released in Jun, 2019 in the set Core Set 2020 and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 8.10.

A deck focused on disrupting your opponent's creature strategies, such as a control or aggro-control deck, would benefit from including Blightbeetle. It can shut down strategies that rely on +1/+1 counters, especially in decks heavy on green creatures. However, there may be better options depending on the specific meta and deck strategy, such as cards like Hushbringer or Tocatli Honor Guard that have broader effects on creature abilities. Blightbeetle could see play in sideboards or specific matchups where its abilities are particularly impactful.

Rules

07/12/19

Blightbeetle doesn’t remove any +1/+1 counters already on creatures your opponents control.

07/12/19

If a replacement effect allows a player to modify or replace an event by putting +1/+1 counters on a creature affected by Blightbeetle, that player may apply that replacement effect, but they won’t get counters. If the original event is entirely replaced (such as by applying Vigor’s replacement effect), the entire original event simply doesn’t happen.
