Reluctant Role Model

Description

The 2024 Magic: The Gathering Duskmourn: House of Horror foil card #303, Reluctant Role Model, introduces a strategic Human Survivor to the game's roster. Designed by artist Ivan Shavrin, this Rare card features a distinctive foil treatment that enhances its visual appeal for collectors. As a white mana creature with a mana value of two, it offers an accessible entry point into the set's complex narrative and gameplay dynamics. Reluctant Role Model possesses the Survival ability, which activates during the beginning of your second main phase if the creature is tapped. This ability allows you to place a flying, lifelink, or +1/+1 counter on it, providing flexible utility depending on your current board state.

If the dying creature had counters on it, those counters are transferred to up to one target creature you control. This mechanic encourages thoughtful resource management and synergizes well with decks that utilize token strategies or sacrificial themes.

Reluctant Role Model stands out as a notable addition to this collection, offering both aesthetic value through its foil finish and mechanical intrigue through its counter-transfer abilities. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a thematic collection, this card provides a compelling option for enthusiasts of the format.
