The Fugitive Doctor

Description

The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set brings the iconic sci-fi franchise into the multiverse of colors and spells. This release, The Fugitive Doctor, is a Rare card identified by number 130 in the WHO set code. It represents the Time Lord Doctor as a Legendary Creature with a mana cost of three generic, one red, and one green mana. The card boasts a mana value of five and possesses the subtypes Time, Lord, and Doctor, making it a distinct addition to any crossover collection. In gameplay, The Fugitive Doctor offers strategic depth through its triggered abilities. When this card enters the battlefield, it allows the player to investigate, creating Clue tokens that generate mana or artifacts. During combat, sacrificing a Clue enables the caster to target an instant or sorcery card in their graveyard, granting it flashback until end of turn. This mechanic allows for the temporary reuse of powerful spells from the graveyard, adding a layer of resource management to the deck. Artists like Greg Staples contribute to the set's visual identity, though collectors focus on the card's mechanical utility and rarity. For fans of both Magic: The Gathering and Doctor Who, this card serves as a bridge between the two fandoms, offering both collectible value and competitive potential. The combination of the Time Lord theme and flexible spell casting makes The Fugitive Doctor a standout piece for enthusiasts looking to expand their Magic collections with unique crossover themes.
