Executioner's Capsule
Oracle Text
{1}{B}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Destroy target nonblack creature.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Executioner's Capsule is a classic piece of black control removal: a one-mana artifact that sits quietly on the table until it turns into a clean answer for any nonblack creature. It best supports tempo and control decks, where trading a little setup time for a precise kill spell is worth the flexibility of being an artifact rather than a dead draw in the wrong matchup. Because it can be activated at instant speed once you have the mana, it helps you keep opponents guessing and punish overextension. The artifact type also opens synergy lines with sacrifice, recursion, and artifact-count payoffs; in Commander, it pairs well with cards that recur artifacts from the graveyard or care about sacrificing permanents, letting you reuse the removal more than once. It is especially strong in slow decks that want cheap interaction while preserving mana for bigger plays, though its weakness is obvious against black creatures and artifact hate.
