Oracle Text
This spell can't be countered.
You may have this creature enter as a copy of any creature on the battlefield, except it enters with X additional +1/+1 counters on it.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Altered Ego is a flexible Simic value piece that rewards you for turning whatever creature is already on the board into your own customized threat. Because it can’t be countered, it’s especially appealing in control-leaning or midrange decks that want a reliable payoff after trading resources, and the X cost lets it scale from early copy utility to a late-game finisher. Copying the best creature on the battlefield while adding X +1/+1 counters makes it excellent at stabilizing against aggressive decks or overpowering them with a larger version of their own bomb. It also pairs well with creatures that have strong enters-the-battlefield effects, since you get the copied body plus a bigger frame. In Commander, it shines in decks that can ramp efficiently and exploit creature synergies, such as counters matters builds, clone shells, or blink strategies that value redundancy. A key tip: use it after an opponent deploys a premium creature, so you get maximum card quality from a single spell.
