Grothama, All-Devouring

Description

Grothama, All-Devouring, card number 71 from Magic: The Gathering's Battlebond set, represents a distinct design approach to high-impact creatures. Released in 2018, this card is categorized as a Legendary Creature with the Wurm subtype, carrying a mana cost of three generic mana and two green mana symbols. The card's power level is defined by its 10 power and 8 toughness, establishing it as a formidable presence on the battlefield. The strategic identity of Grothama, All-Devouring centers on its unique interaction with other creatures in play. The card grants a triggered ability to other creatures, allowing them to fight Grothama whenever they attack. This mechanic encourages aggressive playstyles and complex combat math, distinguishing it from standard creature cards that rely solely on their own stats. When Grothama leaves the battlefield, a secondary effect triggers for all players, granting them cards equal to the total damage dealt to Grothama during that turn by sources they controlled. This creates a dynamic risk-reward scenario for both the controller and their opponents. Collecting this card involves seeking out the Battlebond expansion's print runs. The set code for this release is BBD, and the card was illustrated by Mark Behm. Collectors often look for this card to complete their Battlebond collections or to acquire specific gameplay tools. The Battlebond set itself was designed to explore the dynamics of the Commander format, making cards like Grothama, All-Devouring particularly relevant for players interested in that multiplayer environment. While the card's physical attributes vary by print run, its identity remains fixed within the Battlebond catalog.
