About Blight-Breath Catoblepas

Blight-Breath Catoblepas, Creature — beast, designed by Antonio José Manzanedo first released in Jan, 2020 in the set Theros Beyond Death. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 56.04.

A deck that focuses on black devotion would benefit from including Blight-Breath Catoblepas, as it can provide removal for opponent's creatures based on the player's devotion to black. However, there are potentially better cards for similar effects, such as Gray Merchant of Asphodel, which has a more impactful drain effect based on black devotion. Whether Blight-Breath Catoblepas should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as well as the overall metagame.

Rules

01/24/20

If an activated ability or triggered ability has an effect that depends on your devotion to a color, you count the number of mana symbols of that color among the mana costs of permanents you control as the ability resolves. The permanent with that ability will be counted if it’s still on the battlefield at that time.

01/24/20

Mana symbols in the text boxes of permanents you control don’t count toward your devotion to any color.

01/24/20

The value of X is determined only as the triggered ability resolves. Once that happens, the value of X won’t change later in the turn even if your devotion to black changes.
