Bill Potts

Description

Bill Potts appears as card number 76 in Magic: The Gathering's 2023 Doctor Who expansion, bringing a beloved character from the long-running sci-fi series into the strategic world of TCG. Designed by Kieran Yanner, this rare card features a mana cost of three generic mana and one red mana, resulting in a mana value of four. As a legendary Human creature, it enters the battlefield with two power and four toughness, offering a resilient presence on the board. The card's primary appeal lies in its distinctive triggered ability. Whenever a player casts an instant or sorcery spell targeting only Bill Potts, or activates an ability targeting only her, that spell or ability is copied. The player controlling the copy may choose new targets for it. This ability triggers only once each turn, rewarding players who build decks around protecting and empowering this companion. For commanders, Bill Potts allows you to have two commanders if the other is a character representing the Doctor, facilitating unique double-commander formats. Collectors and players alike value this piece for its crossover appeal and functional design. The Doctor Who set captures the essence of the television show, allowing fans to integrate their favorite characters into their Magic strategies. The card's red color identity aligns with themes of passion and action, making it a fitting choice for aggressive or combo-based decks that can leverage its copying effect effectively. Whether you are building a themed Commander deck or simply appreciate the intersection of pop culture and tabletop gaming, Bill Potts offers a compelling addition to your collection.
