About Festering Newt
Festering Newt, Creature — salamander, designed by Eric Deschamps first released in May, 2020 in the set Magic 2014 and was printed exactly in 4 different ways.
A deck that focuses on sacrificing creatures or has a theme of -1/-1 counters would benefit from including Festering Newt. However, there are more efficient cards that offer similar effects, such as Cauldron Familiar or Plaguecrafter, which may be better options depending on the deck's strategy. Festering Newt could see play in a casual or themed deck, but may not be competitive in more optimized or fast-paced formats.
Rules
11/17/17
Whether you control a creature named Bogbrew Witch is checked only as the triggered ability resolves. How the target creature is affected won’t change if you gain or lose control of all your Bogbrew Witches later in the turn.
