Thunderkin Awakener

Description

The Thunderkin Awakener from the Magic: The Gathering Core Set 2020 Promos release is a notable Rare card for collectors of the trading card game. Designed as a Creature — Elemental Shaman, this card features a mana cost of {1}{R} and a mana value of 2. The card number 162p identifies it within the PM20 set code, and the foil finish adds a distinctive sheen that enhances its visual appeal for display purposes. Art by Yongjae Choi, the Thunderkin Awakener brings unique gameplay mechanics to the table. It possesses Haste, allowing it to attack or use abilities the turn it is played. Its most distinctive ability triggers whenever it attacks: you can choose a target Elemental creature card in your graveyard with a toughness less than this creature's toughness. That card is returned to the battlefield tapped and attacking, then sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step. This interaction creates dynamic board states by recycling powerful Elementals from the discard pile. Collectors often seek out the Thunderkin Awakener for its elegant design and strategic depth. The combination of low mana cost, Haste, and graveyard interaction makes it a versatile piece in the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem. Whether you are building a themed deck or adding to your collection of promotional cards, this foil card stands out as a valuable addition. The PM20 set offers a curated selection of cards that appeal to both competitive players and hobbyists who appreciate the artistry and mechanics of the game. Owning the Thunderkin Awakener connects you to a specific moment in Magic history, showcasing the creativity of the Core Set 2020 promotional lineup. Its Elemental subtype and Shaman class provide thematic consistency for players focusing on tribal strategies or simply enjoying the lore of Ravnica and beyond. This card remains a favorite among those who value both aesthetic quality and functional gameplay in their Magic: The Gathering collections.
