About Rescuer Sphinx

Rescuer Sphinx, Creature — sphinx, designed by Jesper Ejsing first released in Apr, 2019 in the set War of the Spark and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.12. It's a key card in 1 combos.

A deck focused on tempo and board control would benefit from including Rescuer Sphinx, as it provides a way to protect key nonland permanents while also developing a threat in the air. However, in a competitive Magic: The Gathering environment, there are more efficient options available such as Spellstutter Sprite or Vendilion Clique in blue tempo decks, which offer more immediate impact and disruption. Rescuer Sphinx could see play in more casual or budget decks looking for a versatile flying creature with a bounce effect.
