Description

This foil Rare Legendary Human creature, designed by artist Ekaterina Burmak, brings a unique mechanical synergy to the table for collectors and players alike. With a mana cost of {1}{W} and a mana value of 2, the card enters the battlefield as a 2/2 body, offering an efficient presence in white decks.

Whenever Astrid Peth enters the battlefield or attacks, it creates a Food token, providing a versatile resource that can be used for various effects across the game. Additionally, the card features a triggered ability tied to sacrificing Clue or Food tokens: when such a sacrifice occurs, Astrid Peth explores.

The foil finish adds a layer of visual distinction, making it a desirable addition to any Doctor Who-themed collection or competitive Magic deck. The interplay between Food tokens and the explore mechanic offers flexible gameplay options, rewarding players who can effectively manage their resources to maximize Astrid Peth's potential on the battlefield.
