King of the Oathbreakers

Description

King of the Oathbreakers (#369) is a legendary Spirit Noble creature card from the 2023 Magic: The Gathering expansion, The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth. This foil version features a shimmering finish that enhances its appeal for collectors of the franchise and the trading card game. The card costs {2}{W}{B} to cast and has a mana value of four, with a power and toughness of 3/3. The card possesses the flying keyword, allowing it to evade most ground-based blockers. Its primary ability revolves around protection and token generation. Whenever King of the Oathbreakers or another Spirit you control becomes the target of a spell, it phases out, effectively removing it from the battlefield until your next turn. When it phases back in, the controller creates a tapped 1/1 white Spirit creature token with flying. This mechanic encourages players to build decks centered around the Spirit tribe, leveraging the card's ability to survive targeted removal and generate board presence. Designed by Tatiana Veryayskaya, the card represents a key piece of the Middle-earth narrative within the Magic: The Gathering universe. Collectors often seek out specific card numbers from the Tales of Middle-earth set to complete their collections or build themed decks. The foil treatment adds a layer of visual distinction, making it a desirable addition for those who appreciate the aesthetic qualities of the game's print runs. Whether used in gameplay or displayed as part of a broader collection, King of the Oathbreakers stands as a notable entry in the Lord of the Rings-themed releases.
