Released in 2006, this product represents the Timeshifted subset, which brought forward older mechanics and creatures from earlier sets into the modern format. As an Artifact Creature — Golem, it presents a compelling strategic option with a mana cost of four and a power/toughness of 3/3. The card's defining feature is its special rules text, which allows it to survive discard effects by entering the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters instead of going to the graveyard.

The Timeshifted treatment gives the card a distinct visual identity within the set, appealing to those who value both mechanical depth and aesthetic variety. For collectors, the Dodecapod serves as an essential piece for those completing the Time Spiral set. Its status as a special rarity card adds to its desirability, while the contribution of artist John Howe provides a high-quality artistic touch.
