Martha Jones

Description

The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who expansion brings the beloved sci-fi universe into the TCG format, and Martha Jones (#954) stands out as a formidable choice for any deck. This Legendary Creature — Human Cleric card features a striking foil finish that enhances its visual appeal for collectors and players alike. Designed by artist Daniel Correia, the card captures the essence of Martha’s character, blending her medical expertise with her adventurous spirit. From a gameplay perspective, Martha Jones offers a versatile utility that can turn the tide of battle. With a mana cost of {2}{U} and a mana value of 3, she fits seamlessly into blue-based strategies. Her primary ability allows you to investigate upon entering the battlefield, creating a Clue token—an artifact that can be sacrificed to draw a card. This card advantage engine is potent, especially when combined with her secondary ability: whenever you sacrifice a Clue, Martha Jones and up to one other target creature cannot be blocked this turn. This creates exciting combat interactions, allowing for unexpected strikes against opponents. Martha Jones is a key piece for completing the set, particularly for those drawn to her foil variant. The card’s rarity as a Rare ensures it holds significant value among enthusiasts of both Magic: The Gathering and the long-running series. Her inclusion of the "Doctor's companion" super type adds an extra layer of strategic depth, enabling dual-commander formats that many players enjoy. Whether you are building a thematic deck or simply appreciate the artistry of the Doctor Who universe, this card is a must-add to your collection.
