Martha Jones

Description

At the heart of this crossover is Martha Jones, card number 48, a Legendary Human Cleric that offers distinct tactical options for commanders and constructed formats alike. Designed by artist Daniel Correia, this card captures the essence of the companion's role within the narrative, translated into mechanical depth for the trading card game. Martha Jones functions as a powerful support unit with a mana cost of two generic and one blue mana. Her primary ability triggers when she enters the battlefield, allowing players to investigate by creating a Clue token. This artifact token can be sacrificed for two mana to draw a card, providing consistent resource generation. Furthermore, her passive ability enhances board presence: whenever a Clue is sacrificed, Martha Jones and up to one other target creature cannot be blocked this turn. This synergy makes her an excellent choice for decks looking to protect key creatures and maintain card advantage. Martha Jones is particularly sought after for her compatibility with the "Doctor's companion" mechanic, which allows her to serve as a second commander alongside a Doctor character. This flexibility opens up diverse deck-building possibilities, appealing to both casual and competitive players who enjoy the strategic depth of commander formats. The card’s design and rules text reflect the careful balance between thematic homage and functional gameplay that defines this release. Whether you are looking to complete your Doctor Who collection or add a versatile commander to your shelf, Martha Jones represents a significant entry in the 2023 expansion. Her ability to generate cards and protect your army makes her a valuable asset in any blue-based strategy.
