Oracle Text
First strike
Creatures and nonbasic lands your opponents control enter tapped.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Thalia, Heretic Cathar is a classic hatebear that shines in tempo and prison-style white decks, where every turn of delay compounds into a real advantage. A 3/2 with first strike for three mana means she can pressure planeswalkers and brawl profitably against smaller creatures, but her real strength is her static ability: opposing creatures and nonbasic lands enter tapped, slowing fetchlands, duals, manlands, and haste-based attacks all at once. That makes her excellent in aggressive decks that want to keep the opponent off balance while turning sideways, especially in Human, Soldier, or Aether Vial shells. She pairs well with effects that punish tapped permanents, like Winter Orb-style resource denial or cards that capitalize on tempo gaps, and she becomes even nastier when deployed early off fast mana. In short, she is both a vigilant battlefield commander and a disruption piece, rewarding decks that want to win by constricting the opponent’s options before they can stabilize.
