Description
Released in 2004 as part of the Darksteel set, Roaring Slagwurm (Card Number 83) is a rare green creature that captures the industrial fantasy aesthetic of the Magic: The Gathering block. Illustrated by David Martin, this card features a mana cost of five generic mana and two green mana, resulting in a mana value of seven. As a Creature — Wurm, it boasts impressive stats with six power and four toughness, making it a durable presence on the battlefield. The card's most defining mechanic is its triggered ability: whenever it attacks, it taps all artifacts in play. This effect offers significant control potential against decks heavily reliant on equipment or mana rocks. Collectors of the Darksteel set often seek this card to complete their run, while players appreciate its strategic utility in specific formats. The flavor text hints at the territorial nature of Wurms near the Radix, adding narrative depth to the card's design. Whether you are building a collection of rare cards or studying the strategic innovations of the 2004 era, Roaring Slagwurm remains a notable entry in the Magic: The Gathering universe.
