Public Enemy

Description

The 2022 Magic: The Gathering Streets of New Capenna Public Enemy card (number 55) is a blue uncommon enchantment designed to shift the flow of combat. As an Aura, this card attaches to a creature you control, fundamentally altering how that unit interacts with opponents. The strategic value lies in its ability to force all enemy creatures to attack the controller of the enchanted unit, provided they are able to do so. This creates immediate pressure, as opponents must either deal with the enchanted creature or suffer the consequences of diverting their entire board state. A significant secondary benefit activates when the enchanted creature dies, allowing the player to draw a card. This card draw mechanic ensures that even if the enchantment is removed or the creature is destroyed, the player gains resource advantage, maintaining hand size and options. The foil finish adds a premium aesthetic appeal, making it a desirable addition for collectors who appreciate the visual presentation of TCG cards. Designed by artist Dominik Mayer, this card embodies the high-stakes criminal underworld theme of the New Capenna setting. For players building blue strategies, Public Enemy offers a unique control option that turns defensive positioning into aggressive disruption. It is a staple for those looking to complete the Streets of New Capenna set or enhance their gameplay with versatile enchantment options. Whether you are a seasoned player seeking tactical depth or a collector focused on the aesthetic of the SNC expansion, this card represents a key piece of the set's mechanical identity.
