Bill Ferny, Bree Swindler

Description

Bill Ferny, Bree Swindler is a Legendary Human Rogue creature card from the 2023 Magic: The Gathering expansion, The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth. Carrying the set code LTR and card number 493, this uncommon foil release brings a distinct flavor of deception and opportunism to the game. Designed by artist Hristo D. Chukov, the card features a mana cost of {1}{U} and a power/toughness of 2/1, making it an efficient addition to blue-based strategies. The card's unique ability activates whenever Bill Ferny becomes blocked, offering the controller a choice between generating resources or creating chaos for the opponent. You can choose to create a Treasure token, an artifact that can be sacrificed to add one mana of any color, or target an opponent to gain control of a Horse you control. If the opponent does so, Bill Ferny is removed from combat, and you create three additional Treasure tokens. This dual-option mechanic provides strategic flexibility, allowing players to adapt their game plan based on the board state. Collectors of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth appreciate this card for its thematic representation of the character's cunning nature and its functional design within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The foil treatment adds a premium visual appeal, making it a desirable item for enthusiasts building their collections. Whether you are a seasoned player looking to expand your deck options or a fan of the fantasy lore, this card represents a solid piece of the Middle-earth narrative. The combination of its lore-friendly abilities and aesthetic finish ensures it remains a notable entry in the 2023 release.
