Tangleclaw Werewolf // Fibrous Entangler

Description

The Tangleclaw Werewolf // Fibrous Entangler is a dual-faced card from the 2016 Magic: The Gathering Eldritch Moon expansion, designated as card number 174. Printed as an uncommon with a foil finish, this green creature card represents a unique gameplay mechanic where the card transforms based on in-game conditions. The front face depicts Tangleclaw Werewolf, a Werewolf Horror with a mana cost of {2}{G}{G} and power/toughness of 2/4. Its primary ability allows the controller to block an additional creature each combat, providing defensive utility during matches. When transformed, the card becomes Fibrous Entangler, requiring a {6}{G} activation cost to initiate the change. This transformation mechanic is central to the design of many cards in the Eldritch Moon set, offering players strategic depth through the evolution of their creatures. The card was illustrated by Steven Belledin, whose artwork complements the dark fantasy aesthetic of the Werewolf theme. Collectors often seek out foil versions of uncommon cards like this one to add variety and visual appeal to their collections. The dual-sided nature of the card adds a layer of complexity to the game, as players must manage the transformation carefully to maximize its potential. Whether used for competitive play or casual games, this card remains a memorable part of the Eldritch Moon expansion.
