"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we're going to be discussing the black color from "Magic: The Gathering". And now we're going to go over "Festering Goblin." "Festering Goblin" is another powerful creature that has been in magic for a very long time. It cost you 1 black to play, which means this is a first-turn creature. It's a 1/1 and is a common out of the basic set. It is also a Zombie Goblin, which means it gets benefits for zombie cards and goblin cards, which means any cards that pimp up or pump up zombies and/or Goblins all go to this card as well. And, you're also getting a free ability, when Festering Goblin is put into a graveyard from play, which means it has to be on the table to do this, then target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn, which means that you could block this creature on a 2/2 creature, and when this creature is killed off, you can give the target creature that killed this creature -1/-1, and that 2/2 creature will die, which makes this card a very powerful card because of this minus factor. This minus factor is not damaged and cannot be prevented."
