This card can be enchanted by moving Auras onto it. The “can’t be the target” text is different from “can’t be enchanted” in that it only applies to Aura spells when they are being cast.

Context

This printing is one of 3 catalogued treatments from ME3 — the lineup includes Foil and Nonfoil alongside the standard finish. Across our catalog the Rarix library tracks every variant in the same family so collectors can compare price, scarcity and demand inside a single lineage.

Card #179 of *Masters Edition III*, the set that shipped alongside the September 2009 Masters Edition III release.

Card type: Legendary Creature — Human Archer, color identity black/red/blue, printed at rare. Rares occupy the bottom-of-pack rare slot in standard boosters. Mana cost: {U}{B}{R} (3 converted).

Legal in Legacy, Vintage, and Commander. This printing is on Wizards of the Coast's Reserved List — Wizards has committed never to reprint cards on that list, which underwrites a structural scarcity floor on every surviving copy.

EDHrec ranks this card #26,687 in Commander, putting it in the fringe-play tier of the format's playable pool.
