Nico Minoru, Runaway

Description

Designed by Carissa Susilo, this card brings the Marvel character to the tabletop with a distinct red mana identity and a versatile mechanical profile. As a four-mana creature with a power and toughness of 2/4, Nico Minoru offers strategic depth for players building Commander decks that prioritize spell casting and resource manipulation. The card’s rules text provides two powerful abilities that define its role in gameplay. Whenever you cast a spell from anywhere other than your hand, Nico Minoru deals 2 damage to each opponent, creating immediate board pressure. Additionally, players can sacrifice tempo by discarding a card to exile cards from the top of their library until they find a nonland card, which can then be cast without paying its mana cost. This second ability allows for significant card advantage and flexibility, enabling players to access key spells from the top of their deck when needed most. The foil finish adds a premium aesthetic appeal, making it a desirable addition for collectors who appreciate both the artistic design and the strategic utility of the card. Whether used in competitive play or casual Commander games, Nico Minoru, Runaway offers a compelling blend of offensive capability and resource generation. Collectors and players alike will find this card to be a valuable asset in their Magic: The Gathering collection, representing both the crossover appeal of the Marvel universe and the intricate design philosophy of Wizards of the Coast.
