About Battle Screech

Battle Screech, Sorcery, designed by Randy Gallegos first released in May, 2002 in the set Judgment and was printed exactly in 9 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Pauper and Premodern.

A deck focused on white weenie aggro or token strategies would benefit from including Battle Screech, as it provides a quick way to generate flying creatures for attacking or blocking. While there may be more efficient token generators available, such as Spectral Procession or Lingering Souls, Battle Screech's flashback ability adds value by providing additional token generation from the graveyard. Overall, Battle Screech could see play in decks looking to go wide with tokens and take advantage of flying creatures in combat.

A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.

If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it’s legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.

You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card’s type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

To pay Battle Screech’s flashback cost, you may tap any untapped white creatures you control, including ones you haven’t controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.
