Description
The Mardu Ascendancy card, numbered 185 in the 2014 Khans of Tarkir set, is a rare enchantment within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by artist Jason Chan, this card features a mana cost of {R}{W}{B} and a mana value of 3, requiring a mix of red, white, and black mana to cast. Its color identity spans these three distinct factions, making it a versatile addition for decks built around multi-color strategies. As a key piece in the Khans of Tarkir release, Mardu Ascendancy provides unique tactical options for players. The card’s primary effect triggers whenever a nontoken creature you control attacks, creating a 1/1 red Goblin creature token that enters the battlefield tapped and attacking. This continuous generation of attackers can overwhelm opponents and apply consistent pressure. Additionally, the card offers a sacrifice ability that grants all creatures you control +0/+3 until end of turn, serving as a powerful finisher or combat trick to close out games. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering often seek out cards from the Khans of Tarkir set due to its cohesive design and strategic depth. The Mardu Ascendancy card stands out for its efficient mana curve and dual utility, appealing to both competitive players and casual enthusiasts. Its rarity as a rare card from a popular set adds to its desirability among those looking to complete their collection or build thematic decks. Whether you are a seasoned player or new to the game, this enchantment represents a significant part of the Khans of Tarkir era in Magic history.
