About Gideon's Triumph

Gideon's Triumph, Instant, designed by Kieran Yanner first released in Apr, 2019 in the set War of the Spark. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.36.

This card, Gideon's Triumph, would be beneficial in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's board state by removing key attacking or blocking creatures. While it can be powerful in a deck with a Gideon planeswalker, there are other removal spells like Path to Exile or Swords to Plowshares that are more versatile and efficient in a wider range of situations. Gideon's Triumph could see play in specific metas where sacrificing creatures is particularly impactful, but overall, it may not be a top choice for most competitive decks.

Rules

05/03/19

A creature that was put onto the battlefield attacking didn’t attack, so it can’t be sacrificed.

05/03/19

Controlling more than one planeswalker of the appropriate type won’t have any more of a benefit than just controlling one.

05/03/19

Gideon’s Triumph can be cast before combat damage has been dealt. In this case, it can be cast before or after blockers have been chosen.

05/03/19

Gideon’s Triumph targets the player, not the creature or creatures to be sacrificed. A creature with hexproof may be sacrificed this way.
