Tattermunge Witch

Description

The Tattermunge Witch, identified as card number 212, is a distinct creature entry within the 2017 Modern Masters set of Magic: The Gathering. As an Uncommon rarity card, it serves as a functional piece for collectors building their MM3 collection or those seeking specific Goblin Shaman synergies. The card features the artist Warren Mahy and operates within the red and green color identity, requiring a mana cost of {1}{R/G} to cast. In gameplay, the Tattermunge Witch is a Creature — Goblin Shaman with a power and toughness of 2/1. Its primary utility lies in its activated ability, which allows a player to pay {R}{G} to grant each blocked creature +1/+0 and trample until the end of the turn. This mechanic provides strategic flexibility during combat phases, enabling players to push through damage with creatures that might otherwise be blocked. The flavor text surrounding the card references the Tattermunge gang’s instinctual rage, adding narrative depth to the creature’s design without altering its mechanical function. Collectors often seek this card for its role in the Modern Masters series, which focuses on reprinting popular formats and staples. The card’s dual-colored mana requirement and shaman subtype make it a recognizable addition for enthusiasts of the game’s history. Whether you are completing a set, studying card mechanics, or simply appreciating the design of the Modern Masters era, the Tattermunge Witch offers a clear example of the set’s design philosophy.
