The Master, Multiplied

Description

The Master, Multiplied stands as a formidable presence in the 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set, bringing the iconic Time Lord Rogue to the battlefield as a Legendary Creature. Designed by Lie Setiawan and bearing the card number 146, this Rare card demands a mana cost of {4}{B}{R}, establishing a mana value of 6 for players seeking to deploy its powerful abilities. As a creature with four power and three toughness, it offers substantial board presence while utilizing the black and red color identities to deliver aggressive impact. The card’s most distinctive feature is its Myriad ability, which allows it to create token copies of itself for each opponent you have not attacked with this turn. This mechanic encourages wide board states and puts immediate pressure on opponents, forcing them to deal with multiple threats simultaneously. Unlike standard Myriad effects, The Master, Multiplied includes a unique clause ensuring that the legend rule does not apply to the creature tokens you control. This means you can maintain multiple copies on the field without sacrificing them, creating a persistent and escalating threat. Furthermore, the card provides a crucial protective effect: triggered abilities you control cannot cause you to sacrifice or exile the creature tokens you control. This protection is vital for decks built around token strategies, as it prevents common removal spells or effects that target token swarms. Whether you are building a dedicated token archetype or adding a versatile legendary threat to your Commander deck, The Master, Multiplied offers a blend of flavor and strategic depth.
