Only four stars? It's a 3/3 first strike death touch for 3... that's the definition of value. She's also a legendary which is both good and bad (commander). In a deck where black has a ton of removal getting a creature in the graveyard is not hard. This deserves at least a 4.5/5 because of flavor, how dark this actually is in the story, and the value.

Just saying that her favorite pet is Massacre Wurm.

This fits in perfectly with my B/G infect deck that is artifact heavy. Definitely a gem that elicits groans when she hits the board.

I love this card, but I'm still curious story-wise as to how and/or why she sided with Phyrexia when she was the heroine who actually saved Mirrodin from the clutches of Memnarch. What the heck happened?!

Run this with Grave Pact (or Butcher of Malakir in Standard) plus Ornithopter/Memnite and your sac engine of choice.

Even without the artifact recursion, this is a really solid card.

@Darkness1d
you're completely missing the point. executioner's capsule isn't SUPPOSED to kill her.
you're supposed to use the capsule to kill an enemy creatures, and when it dies, you return capsule back to play.
essentially a doomblade for 3CMC with buyback for free.

Core Prowler and Glissa are a great defence. Block any creature with 3- toughness with the Prowler and let Glissa kill other things and KABAM! If Core Prowler dies, recur it, or just get 2 artifacts. Simple as rocket science.

insane card, instant edh leader,
limitless combo potential, i dont really care that she has no evasion, she is printed in the same set as asceticism... and she is black.
she clearly deserves 5/5 if not for he 3/3 for 3 + first strike deathtouch, for the ability that goes with it!
i went phyrexian solely so i could get me hands on promo this! glissa is the knight for my chess deck, and one of my favourite legendary cards, now she is two of my favourite legendary cards!
building edh with this, original glissa and umezawa
