The Borg Queen

Legendary Artifact Creature — Borg Noble

The Borg Queen wants a deck that wins by emptying its opponents' decks. It leads the ready-made We Are the Borg deck (2026).

  • Power / toughness4 / 4
  • RarityMythic

Artifact creatures you control get +2/+2.

Whenever The Borg Queen enters or attacks, target opponent exiles cards from the top of their library until they exile a creature card. Assimilate that card. They put the rest on the bottom in a random order. (To assimilate a card, put it onto the battlefield under your control with a +1/+1 counter. It's a Borg artifact creature and loses all other creature types.)
