Provenance

Where it came from

The Sonic Screwdriver card was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering 'Secret Lair x Doctor Who' collaboration. Designed to function as a powerful mana-generating artifact, the card leans into the show’s legacy by representing the Doctor's most iconic tool, allowing players to tap it for any color of mana and utilize its ability to untap other artifacts.

The card features distinct illustrative work commissioned by Wizards of the Coast to capture the mechanical aesthetic of the various incarnations of the Sonic Screwdriver. It was received as a functional staple for Commander players, blending the mechanical demands of the game with the nostalgic appeal of the long-running British science fiction television series.
