Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Stroke of Midnight is a clean, flexible answer that fits best in white control or midrange decks looking to trade one card for a key opposing permanent while keeping the board manageable. At three mana, it can remove anything from a planeswalker to an equipment, enchantment, or big creature, and the 1/1 Human token it leaves behind is the “midnight” catch: you lose the larger threat, but the story turns the destroyed thing into a small remnant rather than a full setback. That makes it especially strong when you can exploit the tempo swing with a go-wide plan, token anthem effects, or sacrifice outlets that convert the gifted Human into upside. In Commander, it’s also a neat political tool because the token can soften the blow while still answering problematic permanents. If your deck cares about exile-like tempo from white interaction and wants broad utility over narrow removal, this is a reliable inclusion.
