The Fourth Doctor
Oracle Text
You may look at the top card of your library any time.
Would You Like A...? — Once each turn, you may play a historic land or cast a historic spell from the top of your library. When you do, create a Food token. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
The Fourth Doctor is a classic value engine disguised as a 4/4 body: for four mana, it gives you perfect information on your library and a once-per-turn way to convert the top card into momentum, especially if your deck is packed with historic permanents. It best supports a value-tempo or toolbox strategy, since you can keep pressure on the board while “drawing” from the top and smoothing your turns with Food tokens. Build around artifacts, legendary spells, and Sagas to maximize hits; cards like cheap legendary creatures, utility artifacts, and recursive Sagas all become easier to leverage. Topdeck manipulation is especially strong here, so pair it with effects that scry, surveil, or shuffle to set up the exact historic card you want. The Food also matters: it buys time against aggro and can help you stabilize while the Doctor turns every successful top-card cast into incremental advantage.
