Amy Pond

Description

The 2023 Doctor Who expansion brings the beloved television series into the Magic: The Gathering universe, and card number 378 stands out as a pivotal piece for fans and strategists alike. This release features Amy Pond, depicted as a Legendary Human creature with a mana cost of {2}{R} and a power/toughness of 2/2. Designed by Greg Staples, the card captures the adventurous spirit of the companion who traveled with the Doctor across time and space. Beyond its thematic appeal, Amy Pond serves as a functional engine in gameplay. Her Partner ability allows players to coordinate with Rory Williams, enabling a strategic shuffle of Rory into hand upon entry. This interaction supports flexible deck building and dynamic turn starts. Additionally, her triggered ability creates value by removing time counters from suspended cards whenever she deals combat damage. This mechanic rewards aggressive play and synergizes with decks built around the suspended card mechanic, turning combat success into card advantage. The foil treatment adds a premium aesthetic to the card, making it visually distinct from the standard print run. Collectors often seek out rare cards from crossover sets like Doctor Who to complete their themed collections or to utilize their unique mechanics in casual games. Whether you are a dedicated Magic player or a Doctor Who enthusiast, this card bridges two passionate communities with its clever design and nostalgic character portrayal.
