Nighthawk Scavenger: Nightwing Opportunist Nighthawk Scavenger is a compact threat that reads well in the black section of a Commander deck. The creature arrives for {1}{B}{B} with flying, deathtouch and lifelink, so it trades favorably while returning life to the controller. Its printed power is dynamic. The power equals 1 plus the number of card types among cards in your opponents graveyards so the creature grows as opponents commit varied resources to the table.
In practice this card shines where opponents run diverse graveyard piles. It pressures large boards and punishes attacks against you because a single chump block can result in a lethal deathtouch exchange. The card fits into sacrifice builds, value graveyard decks and aggressive black shells that want a flying lifelinker to stabilize life totals while dealing damage. This Near Mint English print from Commander Outlaws of Thunder Junction is ready for play in Commander and other Eternal formats that admit recent reprints.
