Astrid Peth

Description

The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who expansion brings the TARDIS crew into the Multiverse, and card number 334 introduces Astrid Peth as a Legendary Human creature. Designed by artist Ekaterina Burmak, this Rare card invites players to engage with the series' lore through distinct gameplay mechanics. With a mana cost of one white mana and a power and toughness of 2/2, Astrid serves as an efficient early-game presence in white-based decks. Astrid Peth's abilities reflect her role as a resourceful companion. When she enters the battlefield or attacks, she generates a Food token, providing life gain and mana resources. Her second ability, titled Brand-new Sky, allows her to explore whenever you sacrifice a Clue or Food. Exploring reveals the top card of your library; if it is a land, you put it into your hand. Otherwise, you place a +1/+1 counter on Astrid and return the card to its previous position or the graveyard. This design encourages strategic sacrifice cycles to grow the creature's power while maintaining card advantage. Astrid Peth stands out for players who enjoy creature-centric strategies that reward careful resource management. The card's ability to grow stronger through exploration makes it a compelling addition to decks focused on tempo and board presence. Whether you are building a thematic tribute to the show or seeking versatile legends for your Commander format, Astrid Peth offers a unique mechanical identity that honors her character's resilience.
