Rankle and Torbran

Description

The Rankle and Torbran promo card, identified by the set code PMOM and card number 252p, is a legendary creature card from the 2023 March of the Machine Promos expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Illustrated by Viko Menezes, this rare card features a Faerie Dwarf with a mana value of 5 and a mana cost of {1}{B}{B}{R}{R}. As a legendary creature, it possesses the abilities of flying, first strike, and haste, providing immediate impact upon entering the battlefield. The card's primary effect triggers whenever Rankle and Torbran deals combat damage to a player or battle, allowing the controller to choose one of three distinct outcomes: creating a Treasure token for each player, forcing each player to sacrifice a creature, or adding 2 damage to any source dealing damage that turn. The card's black and red color identity aligns with the aggressive and disruptive themes often associated with these colors in the game. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game cards often target promo cards like this one to complete their sets of modern releases or to acquire unique artwork and card treatments not found in standard booster packs. The March of the Machine Promos set offers a diverse array of cards that celebrate the major events of the Magic: The Gathering storyline, and Rankle and Torbran serves as a powerful tool for players looking to build decks around its flexible combat damage trigger. The card features the type line Legendary Creature — Faerie Dwarf and the mana cost {1}{B}{B}{R}{R}.
