Wilfred Mott

Description

The Wilfred Mott foil card stands as a distinctive entry in the 2023 Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who set, bridging the gap between beloved sci-fi lore and complex strategic gameplay. Released under the WHO set code, this Legendary Creature — Human Soldier card brings the character's wisdom and foresight into the arena with a mana value of four and a power/toughness of 2/4. The foil finish adds a layer of visual appeal that collectors often seek when completing themed collections or building display-worthy decks. Mechanically, Wilfred Mott offers a unique advantage through his interaction with time. At the beginning of your upkeep, you place a time counter on him. This triggers an ability that allows you to look at the top X cards of your library, where X equals the number of time counters on the card. From those revealed cards, you may put a nonland permanent with a mana value of three or less onto the battlefield, while shuffling the remainder back into your library in a random order. This design encourages long-term planning and resource management, rewarding players who keep Wilfred on the field. Art by John Di Giovanni, the card embodies the aesthetic of the Doctor Who universe while maintaining the rigorous design standards of Magic: The Gathering. For enthusiasts of both the TCG and the television series, this foil variant serves as a compelling addition to any library. Whether you are a seasoned strategist looking to expand your options or a fan collecting key characters from the show, the Wilfred Mott foil card represents a harmonious blend of narrative significance and interactive gameplay depth.
