Card Details
Set
Character Background
Strax, Sontaran Nurse fits best in a midrange-to-value game plan, where a sturdy 5/5 body can pressure life totals while repeatedly converting expendable artifacts into creature removal. Vigilance and trample make him excellent at attacking without giving up defense, and once “Glory of Battle” starts stacking +1/+1 counters, he becomes a snowball threat that demands an answer. The random player clause on “Grenades!” adds a chaotic Doctor Who flavor, but in practice it still rewards targeting the opponent with the most vulnerable board, since Strax’s fight can clear blockers or pick off key utility creatures. He works especially well in artifact-heavy shells with Treasures, Clues, or cheap artifact tokens, letting you fuel fights without losing real resources; cards that create repeatable artifacts or untap him for multiple activations are particularly strong. Build him as a resilient board-control commander or top-end threat in Naya-style creature decks.
