What it does
Whenever one or more other permanents phase out and whenever one or more other cards are put into exile from anywhere, put a time counter on The War Doctor.
Whenever The War Doctor attacks, it deals damage equal to the number of time counters on it to any target. If a creature dealt damage this way would die this turn, exile it instead.

Where it came from
The War Doctor card, identified as number 167 in the Doctor Who trading card series, commemorates the incarnation of the Time Lord portrayed by John Hurt. This character was introduced in the 2013 fiftieth-anniversary special, The Day of the Doctor, filling a previously unseen gap in the show's regeneration cycle as a warrior who renounced the title of Doctor during the Time War. The card serves as an acknowledgment of this pivotal narrative addition to the long-running British science fiction franchise.
The design of the card emphasizes the weathered, tactical aesthetic of the War Doctor, reflecting his transition from the refined nature of the character to that of a weary combatant. Illustrators for the series typically utilize high-resolution stills from the BBC production to maintain continuity with the show’s visual identity. Within the collecting community, the card is valued as a key piece for those seeking to complete the modern era of the character's legacy, marking the official inclusion of Hurt's performance into the expansive lore of the series.
