Heavy Infantry

Description

Heavy Infantry (ORI-18) is a Magic: The Gathering trading card released in 2019 as part of The List set. This Common card features a white mana Human Soldier creature with a mana cost of four white mana and one additional mana, resulting in a mana value of five. The card’s design identifies it as a Human Soldier type with a power and toughness of 3/4, making it a solid presence on the battlefield. The primary ability of Heavy Infantry activates when it enters the battlefield. Upon being cast and resolved, you may choose a target creature controlled by an opponent and tap it. This disruption effect allows players to neutralize key threats or prevent immediate attacks, providing strategic utility in gameplay. The flavor text accompanying the card reflects a theme of breaking through barriers, emphasizing the relentless nature of the soldier depicted. Art by David Gaillet, this card is cataloged under the set code PLST. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering often seek out cards from The List due to their unique status as supplemental releases. While The List cards are not part of a standard expansion, they offer distinct gameplay mechanics and thematic elements that appeal to dedicated players and completists. The combination of a straightforward creature type with a disruptive entry effect makes Heavy Infantry a notable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection, particularly for those interested in white mana strategies or the broader lore of the game's universe.
