Clive, Ifrit's Dominant // Ifrit, Warden of Inferno

Description

This release centers on Clive, Ifrit's Dominant, a Legendary Creature with the Human Noble Warrior subtype. The card is printed with a foil finish, adding visual depth to its presentation. It carries a mana cost of four generic mana and two red mana symbols, resulting in a mana value of six. Its power and toughness are listed as five over five. The card features a layout designed for transformation. When Clive enters the battlefield, players may choose to discard their entire hand to draw a number of cards equal to their devotion to red. Devotion is calculated by counting the red mana symbols in the mana costs of permanents the player controls. This mechanic allows for aggressive resource management during the early game. A specific activated ability permits the player to exile Clive and return it to the battlefield transformed. This transformation can only be activated as a sorcery. As Ifrit, Warden of Inferno, the card represents a significant shift in the creature's identity while remaining under the same owner's control. The artist for this print is Murakami Hisashi. The double-faced design encourages strategic decision-making regarding when to utilize the initial form versus the transformed version. This product appeals to those interested in the crossover between the video game franchise and the trading card game. It serves as a notable entry for those building their collection of the 2025 release.
