    Glass Asp

    Creature — Snake

    Glass Asp

    Illustrated by Richard Kane Ferguson

    EDHREC Rank #27,601
    Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, that player loses 2 life at the beginning of their next draw step unless they pay 2 generic mana before that step.

    Its venom induces a fever that causes its victims to relive the attack in recurring, haunting visions.

    After Glass Asp’s triggered ability resolves, the affected player has the ability to perform a special action of paying 2 generic mana . This action may be performed any time the player has priority, and it doesn’t use the stack. It may be performed only once. Once that player’s next draw step begins, the player no longer has the ability to perform this action. If the player performed the action, the delayed “lose 2 life” triggered ability won’t trigger. Otherwise, it will.
