Savior of Ollenbock

Description

The 2022 Magic Online Promo Savior of Ollenbock stands as a distinct entry in the Magic: The Gathering catalog, identified by card number 95275 and the PRM set code. Released for the digital platform, this foil Mythic Rare creature card offers collectors a unique piece of the game's promotional history. Designed by Aaron J. Riley, the card represents a specific moment in the digital trading card game's evolution, appealing to those who track platform-exclusive releases. As a white Human Soldier with a mana value of three, the card introduces a dynamic gameplay loop centered on its Training ability. This mechanic triggers whenever the creature attacks alongside another creature with greater power, allowing the player to place a +1/+1 counter on it. This interaction encourages strategic team compositions and rewards players for coordinating their creature attacks. The card’s power lies in its subsequent effect: each time it trains, the controller can exile up to one other target creature from the battlefield or a creature card from a graveyard. This ability provides significant board control and resource denial, making the card mechanically interesting beyond its rarity. The strategic depth continues when the creature leaves the battlefield. Instead of simply going to the graveyard, the card returns all exiled cards to the battlefield under their owners' control. This reset mechanic adds a layer of complexity, turning potential losses into opportunities to recover key resources. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering often seek out these promo cards to complete their digital set collections or to appreciate the unique artwork and mechanics that define platform-specific promotions. The combination of Mythic Rare status, foil finish, and innovative rules text makes the Savior of Ollenbock a notable addition to any serious collection.
