Thermo-Alchemist

Description

The Thermo-Alchemist foil card, numbered 174, occupies a distinct place within the 2025 Innistrad Remastered set. As an Uncommon Human Shaman creature, this Magic: The Gathering trading card game card offers a unique strategic profile for collectors and players alike. The card requires a mana cost of {1}{R}, making it a low-cost option for red decks, with a mana value of 2 and a power/toughness of 0/3. What sets the Thermo-Alchemist apart is its versatile ability set. The creature possesses the defender keyword, meaning it cannot attack, but it can tap to deal 1 damage to each opponent. Furthermore, whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, this creature untaps itself. This mechanic allows for repeated damage output during turns filled with spells, creating interesting tactical possibilities for deck builders. The flavor text, "Madness can't touch a mind ignited by genius," hints at the character's resilience and intellectual fortitude, adding depth to the card's narrative within the Innistrad universe. For collectors, the foil treatment adds a layer of visual appeal to this Uncommon rarity. The artwork by Raymond Swanland brings the Human Shaman to life, capturing the essence of the Innistrad Remastered aesthetic. Whether you are looking to complete a set of foil cards, add a thematic piece to your collection, or simply appreciate the strategic design of this creature, the Thermo-Alchemist stands as a notable entry in the 2025 release. Its combination of defensive capability, recurring damage potential, and foil finish makes it a compelling item for enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
