Magic: The Gathering: 10 Most Powerful One-Mana Creatures In Standard Right Now

Our runner up for the strongest one-mana creature in standard MTG is one which some people may be surprised at. Just looking at this card doesn’t reveal its true potential, but trust that this card can come in clutch in any white deck.

First off, Alseid’s Lifelink ability means that, like some other cards on this list, it gains great benefit from buffs as you can heal yourself for all the damage you do. What makes these potential buffs even easier is that Alseid is already a white card, so in any deck where this nymph is played, you’ll have access to the colour with the most stat buffs in the game.

Furthermore, this card acts as a potential panic button, as sacrificing it can negate any de-buff, destruction, or other interaction on a creature you control as long as the targeting effect has at least one colour. This could save your juiced-up Flourishing Fox and keep your damage on the board.
