Price History
Description
Released in 2010 as part of the Duel Decks: Elspeth vs. Tezzeret series, the Kor Hookmaster stands out as a defining creature for the Kor Soldier subtype. When played, the creature forces a target opponent-controlled creature to tap and skip its next untap step, effectively removing it from action for a critical turn. Designed by Wayne Reynolds, the card captures the essence of the Kor race, known for their rope-centric culture and disciplined military structure. The flavor text highlights this cultural detail, noting how ropes serve as both a symbol of community ties and a literal tool for the Kor. This thematic depth adds to the card's appeal for lore enthusiasts who appreciate the world-building woven into each expansion. As a Common rarity card, the Kor Hookmaster was widely distributed, making it accessible for players building decks focused on tempo and disruption. Its three-mana cost and two-over-two power/toughness stats reflect its role as a solid early-game presence rather than a powerhouse. Collectors often seek this card to complete the base set or to appreciate the artistic and mechanical diversity of the Duel Decks line. Whether you are a veteran player looking to refresh your library or a new collector interested in the strategic elements of Magic: The Gathering, this card represents a fun and interactive piece of TCG history. Its straightforward yet impactful ability makes it a memorable addition to any Kor-themed deck or set collection.
