Description
The 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who Time Beetle card introduces a unique crossover element to the trading card game. As card number 58 in the WHO set, this creature brings a distinct narrative flavor to the table. The Time Beetle functions as a Creature — Alien Insect with a mana cost of {1}{U}. Its design includes two key abilities: Skulk, which prevents it from being blocked by creatures with greater power, and Parallel Universe, a triggered ability that allows players to add or remove time counters from suspended cards and permanents when it deals combat damage. Collectors appreciate this card for its thematic integration of sci-fi elements into the Magic universe. The inclusion of time-manipulation mechanics appeals to players interested in complex board states and strategic depth. For those building a Doctor Who set, this card serves as a notable addition due to its specific role and artwork by John Tedrick. It represents a blend of fantasy gameplay and popular culture reference, making it valuable for both competitive builders and thematic collectors.
