Tarmogoyf's power is equal to the number of card types among cards in all graveyards and its toughness is equal to that number plus 1.

Provenance

Where it came from

Tarmogoyf first appeared in the 2007 Future Sight set for Magic: The Gathering, where it was designed by the game's development team to showcase the new ability word 'lhurgoyf' and interact with the graveyards of both players. It quickly redefined competitive play, becoming a cornerstone card in Modern and Legacy formats due to its exceptional efficiency as a growing threat that scales with the progress of a match.

The Ultimate Masters version, released in 2018, features iconic artwork by Ryan Barger. This iteration was part of a high-profile, limited-run reprint set intended to provide players with premium versions of historically significant staples. While the mechanical identity of the card remained consistent, the visual presentation in this set is widely appreciated by collectors for its polished aesthetic and its inclusion within one of the most celebrated 'Masters' series releases.
