Dark Salvation card art

Dark Salvation

Sorcery MV 1

Tracked across real Commander games played through TurnZero HQ.

What it does

Target player creates X 2/2 black Zombie creature tokens, then up to one target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn for each Zombie that player controls.

Rulings

3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2016-07-13

    You may cast Dark Salvation with X as 0 just to have a creature get -1/-1 for each Zombie a player controls, and you may cast it without targeting any creature just to have a player get Zombie tokens. If you really just want to cast a spell, you can even cast it with X as 0 without a target creature and have neither effect do anything.

  • 2016-07-13

    You choose up to one target creature total, not a separate target for each Zombie that player controls.

  • 2016-07-13

    If the targeted creature becomes an illegal target, the targeted player will still get Zombie tokens.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of Dark Salvation

3 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly. A printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall publishes none for some of them. Click a card's art to chart that version's price above.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Dark Salvation. It runs a name search across every version, which covers the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only. No individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
