MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we're going to be discussing the black color from "Magic: The Gathering". And now, I'm going to discuss "Deathmark" "Deathmark" is a powerful card, powerful sorcery out of the black color from the "Coldsnap Expansion". It costs you 8 black to play and what this does is that it destroys target green or white creature. Now once again, this destruction is a destructive effect, it's not damage so it cannot be prevented and that creature cannot be regenerated because it says destroy and you destroy target green or white creature. This is creature specific for color, which means you would put this in your sideboard to your main deck, and if you run across someone who is running heavy green or white creatures then you would place this card in there, and basically, you're getting a free tear because tear cost you 1 and a black and this only cost you a black to destroy target green or white creature. Very cheap, very powerful card.
In comparing Deathmark to Terror, notice that while Terror states that the target creature cannot regenerate, Deathmark does not say that. Just the term "destroy" does not prevent regeneration.
