Wormwood Treefolk

Description

The Wormwood Treefoil card from Magic: The Gathering Masters Edition III (ME3) represents a unique intersection of fantasy design and strategic depth. Released in 2009, this foil uncommon (card number 140) is part of the Masters Edition III set, a compilation that brought together powerful cards from previous formats into a single, accessible collection. As a five-mana Creature — Treefolk with a 4/4 power and toughness, Wormwood offers a solid board presence while providing flexible utility through its activated abilities. The card’s defining feature lies in its dual-mode mechanic. By sacrificing mana, players can grant it forestwalk or swampwalk until end of turn, effectively making the creature unblockable as long as the defending player controls the respective basic land type. This flexibility allows for creative plays, though each activation comes with a cost of two damage to the controller, adding a layer of risk management to its use. Jesper Myrfors provided the artwork for this edition, contributing to the distinct aesthetic that collectors appreciate. For Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts, the Masters Edition III foil cards hold a special place in the hobby. The foil treatment adds a premium visual appeal, making this Wormwood Treefolk a desirable addition for collectors focusing on the ME3 set or those who appreciate Treefolk archetypes. Whether you are building a vintage-inspired deck or expanding your library of foil rares and uncommons, this card offers both nostalgic value and functional versatility.
