Description

Identified by card number 1 and set code MB2, this creature card represents a unique experiment in game design that prioritizes raw power in exchange for resource management. Crafted by artist Evan Shipard, the card features a standard layout that highlights the Orc Warrior subtype, offering collectors a clean and classic aesthetic typical of the brand's creature illustrations. As a Rare card, the Mardu Outrider commands attention with its impressive 5/5 power and toughness, making it one of the more physically imposing creatures in its mana value of 3. The card is colored black, adhering to the identity of the Mardu faction, and requires a mana cost of one generic mana and two black mana to cast. The gameplay mechanics of the Mardu Outrider introduce a compelling risk-reward dynamic. To cast this spell, players must discard a card from their hand as an additional cost.
