Lore

Why it matters

Pestilence Rats represents the thematic intensity of its set, using a common rarity to allow players to build swarms that scale in strength based on the number of copies on the battlefield. This mechanic rewards collectors for gathering multiple instances of the card to maximize its collective power during play.

Card face

What it does

Pestilence Rats's power is equal to the number of other Rats on the battlefield. (For example, as long as there are two other Rats on the battlefield, Pestilence Rats's power and toughness are 2/3.)
