Doomsday
Oracle Text
Search your library and graveyard for five cards and exile the rest. Put the chosen cards on top of your library in any order. You lose half your life, rounded up.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Doomsday is one of Magic’s most infamous black sorceries, and its design perfectly captures the “burn everything down to the essentials” philosophy: you sacrifice nearly your entire library to assemble the exact five cards you need. In gameplay, it most strongly supports combo and control-combo shells, where precision matters more than raw card quantity. The life loss is steep, so it works best when your deck can win immediately or stabilize through lifegain and protection. A classic deckbuilding tip is to pair Doomsday with a compact winning pile that includes a draw or cantrip effect plus a deterministic kill, such as a sequence built around cheap card selection and a payoff in hand or graveyard. Because it searches both library and graveyard, it also rewards careful sequencing beforehand—filling the graveyard with key pieces can expand your options. In short, this is a high-risk, high-reward finisher for players who enjoy deep planning and surgical combo execution.
