Drizzt Do'Urden

Description

Magic: The Gathering card #220 from the 2021 Adventures in the Forgotten Realms set brings the beloved fantasy character Drizzt Do'Urden to the battlefield as a Legendary Creature — Elf Ranger. Released under the set code AFR, this Rare card requires a mana cost of three generic, one green, and one white mana to cast, resulting in a mana value of five. The card features artwork by Tyler Jacobson and serves as a key piece for collectors of the Forgotten Realms crossover. In gameplay, Drizzt Do'Urden possesses a power and toughness of 3/3. Its most defining feature is the double strike ability, allowing it to deal combat damage twice per turn. Upon entering the battlefield, the card creates Guenhwyvar, a legendary 4/1 green Cat creature token with trample. This token provides immediate board presence and pressure. Additionally, the card includes a triggered ability that activates whenever a creature dies. If the dying creature had power greater than Drizzt's 3 power, the controller places +1/+1 counters on Drizzt equal to the difference. This mechanic allows the card to grow significantly stronger during games where larger creatures are removed. For enthusiasts of the Dungeons & Dragons universe integrated into Magic, this release offers a faithful representation of the iconic ranger. Collectors often seek out specific card numbers from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms to complete their sets or to build thematic decks centered around the Forgotten Realms storyline. The combination of the legendary status, the specific Elf Ranger subtype, and the unique token creation makes this card a distinct addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection. Whether you are focusing on set completion or looking for unique interactions within your library, this card number represents a notable entry in the 2021 expansion.
