The 2022 Magic: The Gathering Transformers set brought a unique crossover experience to the tabletop, blending strategic depth with iconic sci-fi characters. At the heart of this release is card number 17, Ratchet, Field Medic // Ratchet, Rescue Racer, a Mythic Rare foil that stands out for its dual-natured design and powerful mechanics. Created by artist Volta Creation, this card captures the essence of the character's versatility, allowing players to engage with the game through two distinct forms. As a Legendary Artifact Creature — Robot, Ratchet offers strategic flexibility with a mana cost of {2}{W} and a mana value of 3. The card features the transformative layout, enabling players to cast it converted for {1}{W} using the "More Than Meets the Eye" ability. This lower-cost option provides Lifelink, ensuring survival while generating life.
