Description
The Foretold Soldier, designated as card number 395 in the 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set, represents a unique intersection of fantasy strategy and sci-fi narrative. Illustrated by Fajareka Setiawan, this Rare card introduces a compelling gameplay dynamic through the foretell mechanic, allowing players to exile the card from their hand face-down to cast it later for a reduced cost of {1}{G}. As a four-mana Creature — Alien Zombie Soldier, it brings significant board presence with a formidable 6/6 power and toughness. The card’s text imposes a specific tactical constraint, requiring it to be blocked if able, while also limiting it to being blocked by only one opponent’s creature. This strategic depth makes it a notable addition for collectors of the Doctor Who expansion. The card’s single-green mana identity and distinct subtype combination appeal to players building specialized decks within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game ecosystem. Understanding the intricacies of this release helps collectors appreciate the creative design choices made during the Doctor Who crossover event.
