Exterminator Magmarch: Copy That Target
Exterminator Magmarch steps onto the battlefield as a solid midrange option for Commander: Modern Horizons 3. It costs {2}{B}{R} and presents as a 5/3 Phyrexian Construct designed to pressure opposing targets with purpose. Its standout ability triggers when you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets only a single nonland permanent an opponent controls; if another opponent controls one or more nonland permanents that spell could target, you choose one of those permanents, copy that spell, and the copy targets the chosen permanent. This creates a controlled ripple of value that scales with the table’s layout and available targets.
To keep Magmarch in play, you can pay 1{R}{B} to Regenerate Exterminator Magmarch. In practice, this piece fits into spell-heavy decks that leverage copying effects and contested removals, turning a single cast into multi-target pressure across the board. The card’s design rewards careful timing and seat management, offering steady inevitability in multiplayer games without resorting to flashy gimmicks or reckless overreach.
