My personal plan for this is to put it into Kwain, Itinerant Meddler, where I use cards like Alhammarret’s Archive and Teferi’s Ageless Insight to draw more cards off of Kwain to find Approach of the Second Sun. Throw in a Rhystic Study or a Forced Fruition and your opponent trying to take out Consecrated Sphinx could backfire for them straight away. With the very next player’s turn you’ll be building a huge hand, and nothing is scarier than a blue player with a grip full of answers.
It’s hard to overstate just how deadly this Sphinx can be if it’s not removed immediately. It costs a lot to play and is – on the surface – easily to remove, but in two lines of card text it manages to both shut down your opponents from drawing cards unnecessarily (less they give you a game-winning piece) while also generating your own card advantage for the few times they have to. While it isn’t a particularly hard to find card already, it will be interesting to see how the wider circulation of it with this first reprinting will change up Angel-centric decks, especially considering the cards we’ve seen released since Guilds of Ravnica like Righteous Valkyrie.Īlmost any blue deck will benefit from a Consecrated Sphinx. This is Divine Visitation’s first reprinting following its debut in Guilds of Ravnica. Fortunately, there are very few situations where having anything but a 4/4 Angel token would be advantageous.
Of course, it can backfire if the tokens you make have abilities you need (such as a Scute Swarm copy), as the Angels that are made instead won’t have those. It’s one of the best cards to run in a token deck, as it can turn those easily generated plant or insects into much scarier 4/4 Angels with flying. Tokens isn’t an archetype in Double Masters 2022’s draft, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t great to see Divine Visitation reappear.
If one or more creature tokens would be created under your control, that mane 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying and vigilance are created instead.
