Delina, Wild Mage: Roll the Dice on Epic Creature Copies
Delina, Wild Mage embodies the chaotic spirit of red mana in Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, offering a unique attack trigger that rewards daring players with unpredictable board states. When Delina swings into battle, her ability invites you to select a creature you control and roll a d20. The result can summon a tapped, attacking clone of that creature, creating immediate pressure on your opponent while carefully avoiding legendary claustrophobia by removing the legendary status from the token. This interaction makes Delina a potent commander or midrange deck staple, especially synergizing with creatures that provide value upon attacking or have impactful enters-the-battlefield effects.
Her ability to potentially keep rolling tokens if you hit 15 or higher introduces an exhilarating level of variance—perfect for decks that embrace the wild unpredictability of dice rolls. Pairing Delina with creatures like Adventurous Impulse or Goldspan Dragon can amplify her menace, turning her into a relentless swarm generator. The foil treatment here enhances her dynamic artwork, capturing the arcane chaos she channels as an Elf Shaman. For players who relish a blend of strategy and chance, Delina, Wild Mage serves both as a reliable attacker and a wild card that can tip combat in your favor.
