Her house's doors lead to Nothingness.

She owns a Lich's Mirror.

One of her best friends is a persecutor of the abyss.

She also tried to commit to a Warrior's Oath as her Last Chance at a Final Fortune.


Erm.... her father was a Lich??? A Nefarious one, sometimes?
Ok, that's too much...

I enjoy cheating this into play. Then explaining to people why I lose without them asking. Even if I've made the same play to that very same person person.

Zombie Master+Zombie Trailblazer or Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth. Remember, Phage is a Zombie herself now.

Whilst the card does say play, the gatherer information has been updated to *cast*, meaning you have to pay the mana cost and put it onto the battlefield from your hand.

Whilst lots of 'instant win' cards have potential, realistically, the lack of shroud on most of them makes them sitting ducks, or they have such unrealistic expectations that you're likely to never pull them off (I've only ever 'instant won' twice myself - both casual times - the first in a multiplayer match where two Soul Wardens and everyone's creatures coming out gave me enough health for Felidar Sovereign to win it for me, and another where I was playing a Bant lifegaining deck (splashed with a little red), and Mayael's Aria + Cradle of Vitality + Wall of Reverence ended up comboing for the win (thanks to the opponent having pretty much no spot removal).

In terms of Phage, being black protects her from Terror/Doom Blade, and her toughness helps protect her from bolts, but she can still be removed. Protection from... (see all)

Phage the Untouchable: the most poorly understood card in all of magic. More bombos and rules confusions have been made about you than perhaps any other creature. I respect you for that. However, now that I think about it, the M10 terminology changes ought to make it much easier for people. P.S. PolskiSuzeren's idea of swerving a Rise from the Grave onto Phage to kill your opponent is brilliant! lol!

Phage has many weak points, Whipsersilk Cloak covers most of them ^^

Every phage card needs her own "# of times I've killed my owner" tally on the card. Make sure to add yours! Or better yet, stick a proxy over it in a sleeve, so you can print another copy after you run out of them.

Zombie Master, Zombie Trailblazer, Death Baron, Lord Of The Undead, Undead Warchief and Cemetary Reaper have a new best friend. Also, if I use Minion Reflector on this to copy it, would I lose the game?

I find it really funny that this creature is now considered a "Zombie Minion." Rooftop Storm = Hilarity! You still cast Phage, just at 0 mana.

Rooftop Storm works with phage because you're still casting her, you're just casting her for 0.

That's because he means liliana vess's -8 ability returning the phage he just discarded. To the opponents battlefield therefore losing the game due to phage etb ability.
Also sick hand this 4 dark ritual, lightning greaves, swamp.
Play swamp, 4x dark ritual, then this and then play and equip lightning greaves and swing. To badmit falls to force of will or mental misstep.

I saw someone using this card as their EDH General on MTGO. I can only find three cards that could be used to counter Phage's ETB ability: Platinum Angel, Sundial of the Infinite and Torpor Orb. Are there any others?

Mind you, one wouldn't need many more, because black has a bunch of great tutors like Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Imperial Seal and Diabolic Tutor.

Honestly, a Phage EDH deck doesn't sound too far-fetched.

T1: Swamp Dark Ritual, Scornful Egotist (face down)
T2: Island, flip Egotist, Burnt Offering, Phage the Untouchable & Mark of Fury

GG

7 cards, not likely but it could happen

give her away and blink her is a much more reliable strategy

If only she didn't have to be cast from hand, would make an awesome commander otherwise.

She is the one who was really responsible for the death of Venser, don't ever blink this girl, ever.
