Ochre Jelly

Description

The Ochre Jelly foil card from the 2021 Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Promos set offers a unique twist on a classic Magic: The Gathering creature. Identified as card number 196a, this promotional release captures the essence of the D&D-inspired crossover while introducing distinct gameplay mechanics that appeal to both fans of the source material and TCG strategists. Unlike standard printings, this foil treatment adds a layer of visual flair that collectors actively seek to complete their promotional sets. Designed by Daarken, the card retains the recognizable identity of the Ooze subtype while integrating a split mechanic that allows for dynamic board states.

The combination of the iconic monster subject, the rare foil finish, and the intricate rules text makes it a standout piece for enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Whether you are looking to enhance your existing set or explore the intersection of tabletop gaming and fantasy lore, this card provides a tangible connection to the creative world of Dungeons & Dragons within the MTG framework. Its catalog number, 196a, ensures it remains easily identifiable for serious collectors tracking specific releases from the 2021 promotional cycle.
