Description
Deathbringer Thoctar, card number 169, serves as a notable Rare creature within the 2011 Magic: The Gathering Salvat set. This Zombie Beast is defined by its unique ability to grow in power and toughness whenever other creatures perish on the battlefield. Collectors who appreciate complex mechanics will find this card interesting due to its scalable threat level, which allows it to become a significant force as the game progresses. The card’s design emphasizes its dual nature as both a Zombie and a Beast, requiring a mana cost of four generic, one black, and one red mana to cast.

Whether you are focusing on set completion or seeking specific creature types, Deathbringer Thoctar stands as a testament to the intricate design work found in Magic: The Gathering.
