Thunderbreak Regent

Description

The Thunderbreak Regent (card number 162s) is a rare foil creature from the 2015 Dragons of Tarkir Promos expansion in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by Ryan Pancoast, this four-mana Dragon serves as a formidable presence on the battlefield with a distinct power and toughness of 4/4. As a red card, it brings aggressive capabilities to any deck, backed by the iconic flying ability that makes it difficult for opponents to block. Beyond its basic stats, the Thunderbreak Regent features a potent triggered ability that rewards players for drawing opponent's attention. Whenever a Dragon you control becomes the target of a spell or ability controlled by an opponent, this creature deals 3 damage to that player. This mechanic not only protects your board state but also punishes opponents for interacting with your key threats, making it a strategic asset in games focused on dragon themes. The flavor text, "Attracting a dragon's attention may be the last mistake you make," underscores the card's intimidating presence and thematic role within the set. Collectors of the Dragons of Tarkir Promos series often seek out the foil version of this card for its visual appeal and rarity. The shimmering finish enhances the card's aesthetic, making it a standout piece in any collection. Whether you are building a competitive deck around dragon synergies or simply appreciate the art and mechanics of Magic: The Gathering, the Thunderbreak Regent offers a compelling mix of power and style. Its unique ability to turn opponent interactions into direct damage adds a layer of strategic depth that appeals to both casual and serious players.
