Time Reaper

Description

Identified as card number 965 in the WHO expansion, this foil creature card brings a distinct Alien Horror archetype to the table for players who appreciate strategic depth and thematic variety. As a five-mana creature with a power and toughness of 4/4, the Time Reaper delivers immediate board presence. Its design incorporates the keywords Flying and Haste, allowing it to evade early defenses and impact the game on the turn it is played. This combination of speed and aerial mobility makes it a versatile piece for commanders and constructed formats alike, fitting seamlessly into black mana-based strategies that prioritize aggressive tempo. The card’s most defining feature is its triggered ability, Consume Anomaly. Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, it allows you to exile a face-up card from that player's library and place it on the bottom. If this effect resolves, you also gain 3 life. This mechanic provides both card advantage and resource denial, rewarding aggressive play with sustainable life total gains. The foil finish enhances the collectibility of the card, catching the light and highlighting the intricate details of Helge C. Balzer’s artwork. Collectors of the Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set often seek out the Time Reaper to complete their rare cards subset or to utilize its unique abilities in competitive play. The combination of its powerful stats, evasive traits, and impactful triggered ability makes it a standout piece in the crossover expansion. Whether you are building a themed deck around the Doctor Who universe or simply appreciate high-quality foil treatments in TCG cards, this release offers significant appeal for hobbyists and seasoned players.
