Description
The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set brought the beloved sci-fi franchise to the tabletop battlefield, and The Dalek Emperor stands as one of its most imposing figures. Card number 725 in the WHO set, this rare foil card depicts the supreme ruler of the Dalek race as a legendary Artifact Creature with the Dalek subtype. Designed by artist Mark Tedin, the card features a striking foil treatment that enhances the menacing presence of the character within the set's distinctive aesthetic. In gameplay, The Dalek Emperor is a formidable seven-mana threat with a power and toughness of 6/6. Its design leverages the Affinity mechanic, reducing its casting cost by one mana for each Dalek you control, allowing for aggressive plays in dedicated tribal strategies. The creature also grants haste to other Daleks you control, enabling immediate impact upon summoning. Furthermore, it exerts significant board control by forcing opponents to sacrifice a creature or face the creation of a 3/3 black Dalek artifact creature token with menace at the beginning of combat. For collectors of crossover TCG cards, The Dalek Emperor represents a pivotal piece of the Doctor Who expansion, appealing to both Magic players and fans of the source material who appreciate high-impact legendary artifacts.
