Actually this card works really well in a deck based on Wither. Combined with cards like Necroskitter, Kulrath Knight, and Crumbling Ashes, Scar has multiple uses.

Disfigure is a bit better.

Disfigure is only better if you can actually kill the creature. Of course, as a combat trick, when WON'T disfigure kill the creature? Bah, this is a fun gimmick.

What is a scar? a miserable little pile of platelets.

I dunno why this card gets so much hate, if you have Blowfly Infestation out and play Scar on a */1 then you can kill all */1's on the table! Best use is obviously against counter decks but it works well on anything larger if you have a Kulrath Knight as it's like a cheap Pacifism.

I typed scar and found 36 cards.

Anyways good card.

In case anyone who's new comes in and see's this, I'm pretty the point of this card is to counter Persist. As such, It's far better in Shadowmoor than anywhere else, though Proliferate helps too.

This must be the namesake for Scars of Mirrodin, what with all the -1/-1 counters flying around.

Really, it should have gotten a quote from LOTR concerning Bilbo's scar aching many years after it felt the blade of of the witch-king's knife. I miss classic literature on Magic cards.

Virulent Wound is a slight upgrade if you're throwing around poison, but the ability to play it in a red deck does add a small plus.

Except it was Frodo who got stabbed by the witch king of angmar...nazgul these days...no respect.

I'm pretty sure that last sentence in the flavor text is supposed to end with a question mark.

There are better one drops, but this isn't too shabby.

I see that Skullbriar is your general.
It'd be a shame if it got Scarred...

not nearly as bad as most of these comments suggest.

situational, but is good early game control and works even better in a mana curve with Contagion Clasp and Grim Affliction

3.5/5

serves a purpose in an undying Flayer of the Hatebound type deck

Strictly more evil than Green or White Mufasa.

The "constant reminder of agonizing pain" comes from the missing question mark at the end of the quote.

Wish this card was around during undying. Instant speed reset sounds sexy.
