Description
Erratic Mutation is a blue Instant card from the 2007 Magic: The Gathering Planar Chaos expansion, designated as card number 41 with the set code PLC. Released by Wizards of the Coast, this common card offers a unique strategic advantage by allowing players to manipulate creature stats based on their library's contents. The card requires a mana cost of {2}{U} and targets a creature, granting it a +X/-X modifier determined by the mana value of the first nonland card revealed from the top of the library. All revealed cards are then placed on the bottom of the library in any order, adding a layer of deck management to its effect. Erratic Mutation, illustrated by Zoltan Boros and Gabor Szikszai, fits into this innovative framework. While primarily valued for its utility in formats like Commander or Vintage, this card is also a sought-after piece for those completing the full Planar Chaos collection. The product represents a specific point in Magic's design history, appealing to both players looking to enhance their decks and hobbyists who appreciate the era's creative mechanics. Whether used in gameplay or added to a curated collection, Erratic Mutation remains a functional and visually distinct part of the Magic: The Gathering legacy.

Choose target creature. Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonland card. That creature gets +X/-X until end of turn, where X is that card's mana value. Put all cards revealed this way on the bottom of your library in any order.
