Silverback Elder

Description

The Silverback Elder, card number 177p, is a mythic rare creature from the Magic: The Gathering 2022 Dominaria United Promos set. This green Ape Shaman demands {2}{G}{G}{G} to cast and enters the battlefield as a formidable 5/7 body. Its power lies in its versatile triggered ability, which activates whenever you cast any creature spell, offering three distinct strategic options. You may choose to destroy a target artifact or enchantment, look at the top five cards of your library to potentially put a land onto the battlefield tapped, or simply gain 4 life. This flexibility allows it to function as a removal spell, a card advantage engine, or a stabilizer depending on the immediate needs of the game. As a key component of the Dominaria United Promos expansion, this card appeals to collectors who appreciate the rich lore and mechanical depth of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The artwork by Alexander Mokhov brings the character to life, making it a visually striking addition to any binder. Collectors often seek out specific promo cards like the Silverback Elder to complete themed collections or to acquire cards with unique treatment designs that distinguish them from standard set prints. The card's high rarity status as a mythic rare further enhances its desirability among enthusiasts who value the prestige associated with the highest tier of card rarity in the game. Whether you are building a deck around creature synergy or simply curating a library of notable promo cards, the Silverback Elder represents a significant piece of the Dominaria United era.
