Stormwing Dragon

Description

The Stormwing Dragon, card number 159 from the Dragons of Tarkir set, is a striking foil creature from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game released in 2015. Designed by Svetlin Velinov, this uncommon card delivers significant impact on the battlefield with its six-mana cost and formidable stats. As a Dragon, it possesses both flying and first strike, allowing it to evade ground-based defenders while striking first in combat phases. This combination of evasion and offensive power makes it a reliable threat in any red-based strategy. The card also features a unique Megamorph ability, enabling players to cast it face down as a two-two creature for three mana. Turning it face up later requires five mana and two additional red mana, rewarding strategic patience with a +1/+1 counter placed directly on the Stormwing Dragon itself. Upon revealing its true form, the card triggers an effect that places a +1/+1 counter on each other Dragon creature you control, amplifying the power of your existing dragon army. Collectors appreciate the bold foil finish that enhances the visual appeal of this versatile creature. The Dragons of Tarkir set remains a beloved chapter in Magic history, and this card stands out for its mechanical depth and aesthetic design. Whether you are building a deck around dragon synergies or simply appreciate the artistry of the foil treatment, the Stormwing Dragon offers both gameplay utility and collectible value.
