Cult of Skaro

Description

The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who expansion brings the iconic Doctor Who universe into the TCG format, featuring the Cult of Skaro as card number 404. This rare foil card serves as a Legendary Artifact Creature with the Dalek subtype, bringing a distinct mechanical identity to the table. Designed by Alexander Mokhov, the card features a striking foil finish that enhances its visual appeal for collectors who appreciate the artistic direction of this crossover set. From a gameplay perspective, Cult of Skaro commands a mana cost of {1}{U}{B}{R} and boasts a power and toughness of 4/4. Its primary ability triggers whenever it attacks, offering a random choice among four distinct effects: placing +1/+1 counters on artifact creatures, drawing two cards, creating a 3/3 black Dalek artifact creature token with menace, or dealing 4 damage to each opponent. This variability makes it a dynamic addition to decks focusing on artifacts or aggressive strategies. The card’s color identity spans black, red, and blue, allowing for flexible mana base construction. Collectors of both Magic: The Gathering and Doctor Who memorabilia often seek out cards like this for their dual significance. The foil treatment adds a layer of desirability, making it a standout piece in any organized collection. Whether you are building a competitive deck or simply curating a themed collection of TCG crossovers, this card represents a unique intersection of two beloved franchises.
