About Hexing Squelcher
Hexing Squelcher, Creature — goblin sorcerer, designed by Matthew Forsythe first released in Jan, 2026 in the set Lorwyn Eclipsed and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Duel Commander.
Hexing Squelcher would fit best in an aggressive red or red‑based midrange deck that wants to force through key spells against control, such as Mono‑Red Aggro, Gruul Aggro, or even Izzet spells decks in counterspell-heavy metagames, because it protects both your board and your stack interaction by making your spells uncounterable and taxing removal with Ward—Pay 2 life; it’s especially strong in creature-heavy builds where giving your whole team ward meaningfully punishes spot removal. That said, Cavern of Souls is generally a stronger and more reliable anti‑countermeasure in creature decks since it doesn’t take a spell slot and can’t be easily removed, while cards like Allosaurus Shepherd (in green) or Destiny Spinner can offer similar or better protection depending on colors, and Veil of Summer is often more efficient in formats where it’s legal. Whether this should see play depends heavily on the metagame: in a control‑heavy environment it could be a strong sideboard or even maindec
