Mordant Dragon

Description

Released in 2010 as part of the Worldwake set, the Mordant Dragon (WWK #85) stands out as a formidable creature in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This rare red card, illustrated by Scott Chou, brings a six-mana investment to the table for a creature boasting a robust 5/5 power and toughness. Its immediate utility comes from Flying, allowing it to bypass ground-based blockers and strike directly at opponents or their key creatures. Beyond its physical stats, the Mordant Dragon offers a distinct tactical advantage that appeals to strategic players and collectors alike. The card features an activated ability that transforms it into a potent threat: by paying one red mana, the Dragon gains +1/+0 until the end of the turn, enhancing its ability to trade favorably or close out games. Furthermore, whenever it deals combat damage to a player, the controller may choose to deal that same amount of damage to a target creature controlled by that player. This secondary effect provides flexibility, allowing the Dragon to function not just as an attacker but as a removal tool when the situation demands it. For collectors, this card represents a specific moment in the Worldwake era of Magic: The Gathering. As a rare card from set WWK, it holds a place in the history of the game's design evolution. Whether you are building a collection centered on the Worldwake expansion or seeking specific cards for your library, this product offers a tangible connection to that period. It serves as a valuable addition for enthusiasts who appreciate both the aesthetic and mechanical depth of the game's past expansions.
