Best fit Move How to use it Use Nightcrawler in Move shells where its text or stat line advances the deck's main plan instead of forcing a standalone include. Common mistake The common mistake is jamming Nightcrawler into decks that do not naturally support its role; the card gets much better when the surrounding deck already wants this effect. Token advice Consider tokens only if you already play the archetype and the card is still performing well in the current meta. Source: 12 linked ItsGuestGaming article mention(s) found.
