Magic the gathering (Forest) Altanak, the Thrice-Called #0166 - Duskmourn: House of Horror - MTG Card (English) Uncommon

Altanak, the Thrice-Called is an uncommon green Legendary Creature — Insect Beast from Magic: The Gathering — Duskmourn: House of Horror. It costs seven mana (\(\{5\}\{G\}\{G\}\)) and has an impressive power and toughness of 9/9, along with trample, allowing excess combat damage to be dealt to the defending player or planeswalker. Whenever Altanak becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, you draw a card, helping you gain value when opponents try to remove or weaken it. It also has an ability that lets you pay \(\{1\}\{G\}\) and discard it from your hand to return a land card from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped. This makes Altanak useful both as a massive late-game threat and as a way to recover lands when you need to develop your mana.

Featuring artwork by Sam Wolfe Connelly, Altanak, the Thrice-Called captures the eerie, monstrous atmosphere of Duskmourn: House of Horror. Its enormous body, trample, card-draw trigger, and land-recursion ability make it a versatile option for green Commander decks, ramp strategies, and decks that benefit from large creatures and graveyard interaction. Whether played as a powerful finisher or used from hand to recover a land, Altanak offers flexibility for players and collectors alike.
