Witch

Witch is an obsolete creature type that originally appeared on the card.

Description
Witches are practitioners of witchcraft. They can be male or female and usually possess malignant supernatural powers, often casting curses. They may have the aid of a devil or a familiar. Witches are considered vile and cruel, taking great joy in their evil deeds.

History
Within the game of Magic: The Gathering, witches have been represented by various classes. The more supernaturally ugly, old women used the type hag, but humanoid witches could also be a wizard (e.g. Mistmeadow Witch), a spellshaper (e.g. Cackling Witch), a shaman (e.g. Bitterheart Witch), a cleric (e.g. Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch) or a scarecrow (e.g. Wicker Witch)

With the introduction of the gender neutral subtype warlock, that became the preferred creature class for witches.
