Remember to hit reload every day or else the new card may not load!

Not all of the old Card of the Day files are working right now. All of the old files should be running within one month. About 70-85% are working now. Sorry for the delays getting new cards done too. Things are getting back to normal rather well.

In this web page, I hope to present to you strategies, combos, and obscure uses for a new Magic: The Gathering card every single day.

The Card of the Day is...

Viscerid Drone

Alliances Uncommon
1U Summon Homarid

1/2
"T: Sacrifice a creature and a swamp to bury target non-artifact creature.
T: Sacrifice a creature and a snow-covered swamp to bury target creature."

A brief rundown of the card:

Snow-covered land lovers all around the world joined together and thanked WOTC the glorious day Alliances was printed. Nobody can deny how potent Viscerid Drone's second ability is, and you need snow-covered lands to pull it off. Sure, there are some other valid reasons to use snow-covered lands, but most are quickly forgotten or dimissed as too limited of use. Not this lobster though. I dare refer to Viscerid Drone as an equivilant to Nekrataal. The lobster is a little more costly to use, but you are more likely to be able to use the lobster's ability multiple times in one turn than Nekrataal (Instill Energy). Nekrataal needs re-cast to function correctly, the homarid needs (just) land and creatures. Just think to yourself---how many times would I sac a land and a peon creature to bury any creature. I've been in that situation one too many times. Here are a few ways to turn your walking lobster/Dark Banishing/Fissure thingy into a mean creature burying machine:
