Is a -2 wrath EDH worthy?

Massacre Wurm is better. Demon of Dark Schemes is still pretty decent though, especially if your meta has a token deck a weenie deck to contend with. I wouldn't bother with him if you're only playing against decks that use larger creatures - unless you think that you can get enough energy to activate him immediately, he's not as good.

Although Massacre Wurm is better, I'd just play both. More wrath-like creatures the better. Not only that, if you got some other ways to get energy counters, the second ability could be big.

I'm going to test him in my reanimator deck. Seems legit.

Thanks all PhotogenicParasympathetic, MTGNuclear, canterlotguardian. Yeah I was thinking of running it alongside Massacre Wurm, Reiver Demon, Havoc Demon etc. in my Horobi shell. Alongside Touch of Darkness + Horobi, we've got a lot of wrath potential to bring its second ability into play.

Demon of Dark Schemes is quite ok if you can find some energy to activate him at once, you can benefit, otherwise, he isn't the one to choose. I usually choose Massacre Wurm and Reiver Demon. What are your favorites?Mell - Last seen at activation page

I think he works well in the right shell. I'd love to slot him into my Shadowborn EDH - he does exactly what that deck wants to do.
