Description
The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set brings the sci-fi universe to the tabletop, and card number 84, Ensnared by the Mara, stands as a powerful sorcery for red mana players. Designed by Andrey Kuzinskiy, this rare foil card offers a distinct strategic choice that challenges opponents in unique ways. As a sorcery with a mana value of four, this card requires {2}{R}{R} to cast. Its effect forces each opponent to make a villainous decision. They must exile cards from the top of their library until a nonland card is revealed. At that point, the caster may choose to cast that specific card without paying its mana cost, or force the opponent to exile the top four cards of their library and take damage equal to the total mana value of those exiled cards. The foil finish adds visual appeal, making it a desirable addition for those building themed collections or looking for versatile red sorceries. Whether you are a long-time Magic player or a new fan of the Doctor Who franchise, this card represents a fun intersection of hobby interests. The gameplay encourages interaction and risk assessment, making it a memorable inclusion in any red deck. Explore the diverse inventory available to find the perfect piece for your collection.
