Emergent Woodwurm

Description

Emergent Woodwurm is a rare creature card from the 2023 Magic: The Gathering release known as the March of the Machine Commander subset. Identified by card number 37 and set code MOC, this green Wurm requires six generic mana and one green mana to cast, resulting in a mana value of seven. The card features the artist Mathias Kollros and serves as a distinct addition to the Commander subset's roster. The card’s design centers on its Backup 3 ability, which triggers upon entering the battlefield. This effect places three +1/+1 counters on a target creature. If that target is another creature, it temporarily gains an ability that activates whenever Emergent Woodwurm attacks. This attack trigger allows you to look at the top X cards of your library, where X equals the Wurm’s power, and put a permanent card with mana value X or less onto the battlefield. The remaining cards are shuffled into the bottom of the library in a random order. Collectors value this card for its intricate rules text and its role within the broader March of the Machine expansion. The Commander subset offers unique variants and strategies that appeal to enthusiasts of the trading card game. As a seven-mana creature, it represents a significant investment in mana resources, making it a notable piece for those studying high-cost interactions in the game. By understanding the mechanical depth of cards like Emergent Woodwurm, collectors can better appreciate the strategic layers embedded in the March of the Machine Commander subset. Whether you are building a collection or analyzing card interactions, this release offers a fascinating look at modern Magic design.
