Description
Wernog, Rider's Chaplain is a distinct legendary creature card from the 2022 Magic: The Gathering Universes Within set. Identified as card number 8 with the set code SLX, this rare card introduces a unique strategic dynamic through its Partner—Friends forever ability, allowing it to serve as a commander in the Commander format. Designed by artist Diego Gisbert, the card features a mana cost of {W}{B} and possesses a power and toughness of 1/2. The gameplay of Wernog, Rider's Chaplain centers on life total manipulation and token generation.

Opponents who decline to investigate lose 1 life, while the controller investigates one plus the number of opponents who chose to investigate. This interaction makes the card a compelling choice for collectors who appreciate complex board states and interactive mechanics. As a staple of the Universes Within collection, Wernog, Rider's Chaplain represents a blend of thematic depth and mechanical versatility that appeals to both casual players and serious collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game cards.
