Qasali Pridemage

Description

Qasali Pridemage (TSR #383) is a two-mana Creature — Cat Wizard from the 2021 Time Spiral Remastered set in Magic: The Gathering. Designed by Chris Rahn, this card serves as a flexible early-game threat for White and Green decks. With a mana value of two and a power/toughness of 2/2, it provides immediate board presence while offering strategic depth through its unique abilities. The card’s most notable feature is the Exalted keyword. Whenever a creature you control attacks alone, Qasali Pridemage grants that attacker an additional +1/+1 until the end of the turn. This makes the card highly effective in aggressive or midrange strategies that rely on single-creature attacks to close out games quickly. The synergy between its low cost and potential for temporary power boosts allows players to maintain pressure without overcommitting resources. Additionally, Qasali Pridemage offers a versatile removal option through its activated ability. By sacrificing the creature, players can destroy a target artifact or enchantment for just one mana. This dual utility ensures the card remains relevant even if it is blocked or removed during combat, providing value beyond its initial attack. The flavor text, "An elder in one pride, of the Sigiled caste in another," hints at the rich lore surrounding the Naya civilization and its caste-based society. Collectors and players alike appreciate Qasali Pridemage for its balanced design and functional artistry within the Time Spiral Remastered framework. Whether building a competitive deck or expanding a Magic: The Gathering collection, this card represents a solid addition for enthusiasts of the game’s diverse creature types and strategic mechanics.
