Captain Lannery Storm

Description

Captain Lannery Storm, card number 136p, stands as a powerful legendary creature within the Magic: The Gathering Ixalan Promos set released in 2017. This foil version captures the aggressive spirit of the Human Pirate archetype, offering collectors a visually striking addition to their library. The card features artwork by Chris Rallis, whose detailed illustration complements the premium foil treatment that defines this release. From a gameplay perspective, this card is designed for rapid aggression and resource generation. With a mana cost of {2}{R} and a power/toughness of 2/2, Captain Lannery Storm enters the battlefield quickly. Its haste ability allows it to attack immediately, putting immediate pressure on opponents. The card’s primary strength lies in its ability to create Treasure tokens whenever it attacks. These artifacts provide flexible mana of any color when sacrificed, enabling players to cast higher-cost spells ahead of schedule. Furthermore, whenever you sacrifice a Treasure, Captain Lannery Storm gains +1/+0 until end of turn. This synergy creates a feedback loop: attacking generates resources, and using those resources enhances the creature’s combat power. This makes the card particularly effective in decks focused on aggressive strategies or those looking to accelerate their mana base. The foil finish adds a layer of collectibility, making it a sought-after item for those who appreciate both the mechanical utility and the aesthetic appeal of promo cards. Whether you are building a competitive deck or simply expanding your Magic: The Gathering collection, this card offers a unique blend of function and form. Its legacy in the game continues to attract players who value efficient resource management and aggressive playstyles.
