Mammoth Umbra

Description

Mammoth Umbra is a White Enchantment — Aura card from the 2012 Planechase 2012 set. Carrying the card number 10 and the set code PC2, this Uncommon rarity card is designed for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. It requires a mana cost of four generic mana and one white mana to cast, resulting in a mana value of five. The card functions as an Aura that enchants a creature, providing substantial power and toughness buffs. Upon entering the battlefield, the enchanted creature receives +3/+3 and gains the vigilance keyword ability, allowing it to attack without tapping. This combination of offensive boost and defensive utility makes it a resilient option for creature strategies. A defining feature of this card is its Umbra armor ability. If the enchanted creature would be destroyed, the effect triggers to remove all damage from the creature instead, and the Aura is destroyed. This mechanic allows the attached buff to persist through combat damage or removal effects that target destruction, provided the Aura itself survives the transition. For collectors building their Planechase 2012 collection, this card represents a core component of the set's base checklist. The artwork was created by Howard Lyon, contributing to the visual identity of the 2012 release. It offers a distinct mechanical niche within the White color identity, appealing to players who value durability and sustained creature presence on the battlefield.
