Chicken? Gnome? Shriek! We’ve been patiently waiting to spoil this card…

Nethershriek is Death Current with a body. It’s less direct because it needs to land in a lane with an opposing creature, however, the wording makes the thought of giving it Mobility very tempting. The lane variance can be mitigated with some board fill. Because it’s a spell you can level it with a variety of other cards and also get added benefits from both Tarsus Deathweaver and Crypt Conjurer.

This card can slot into many decks (Doomsling 2.0?) and will definitely find a home in competitive constructed play. Here is a one spot you might like to try the 2.3 Nekrium legend:
