Description
Designed by artist L J Koh, this rare card costs {2}{B}{R} to cast and boasts a mana value of four. As a black and red creature, it brings both first strike and haste, allowing it to act immediately upon entering the battlefield. Beyond its aggressive stats, the Sycorax Commander features a unique ability tied to the Sanctified Rules of Combat. When this creature enters play, each opponent must make a difficult choice. They can discard their entire hand to draw that many cards minus one, or they can choose to take damage equal to the number of cards they held. This mechanic creates a high-stakes interaction that can dramatically shift the board state. The Sycorax Commander represents a key piece of the Alien Soldier subtypes within the set. Its dual-color identity and disruptive effect make it a memorable part of the WHO set code release. Enthusiasts building their Doctor Who collection often seek this card number to complete their roster of crossover creatures. Whether you are a long-time Magic player or a new fan of the series, the Sycorax Commander offers a distinct gameplay experience that blends strategic depth with iconic sci-fi lore.
