Description
Released in 1997 as part of the Weatherlight expansion, the Goblin Vandal is a distinct entry in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified by card number 105 in the WTH set code, this Common rarity creature serves as a foundational piece for collectors exploring the early era of the game. Designed by Franz Vohwinkel, the card features a Goblin Rogue with a single Red mana cost, making it accessible for various deck constructions within the game's history. The Goblin Vandal is notable for its aggressive gameplay mechanic. When this creature attacks and remains unblocked, the controller may choose to pay an additional Red mana to destroy a target artifact controlled by the defending player. This effect comes with a strategic trade-off: the Goblin Vandal deals no combat damage that turn, requiring careful timing and resource management. For collectors, this card represents a key component of the Weatherlight block, appealing to those interested in the strategic depth and thematic elements of the original Magic: The Gathering product line. Whether you are building a vintage collection or researching the evolution of artifact removal strategies, this card offers a tangible connection to the game's rich history.
