About Sludge Crawler

Sludge Crawler, Creature — eldrazi drone, designed by Johann Bodin first released in Oct, 2015 in the set Battle for Zendikar. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.81.

This Sludge Crawler card would be beneficial in a deck focused on utilizing ingest mechanics to disrupt the opponent's library and potentially trigger other abilities that benefit from exiled cards. While it can be a decent early-game threat with its ability to grow in power, there are likely more efficient options in terms of power and utility for decks aiming to maximize the ingest mechanic, such as Benthic Infiltrator or Mist Intruder. Whether Sludge Crawler should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck it's included in.

Rules

08/25/15

Cards with devoid use frames that are variations of the transparent frame traditionally used for Eldrazi. The top part of the card features some color over a background based on the texture of the hedrons that once imprisoned the Eldrazi. This coloration is intended to aid deckbuilding and game play.

08/25/15

If a card loses devoid, it will still be colorless. This is because effects that change an object’s color (like the one created by devoid) are considered before the object loses devoid.

08/25/15

If the player has no cards in their library when the ingest ability resolves, nothing happens. That player won’t lose the game (until they have to draw a card from an empty library).

08/25/15

Other cards and abilities can give a card with devoid color. If that happens, it’s just the new color, not that color and colorless.
