What it does

Haste

Into the TARDIS — Whenever The Ninth Doctor becomes untapped during your untap step, you get an additional upkeep step after this step.

Rulings

4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2023-10-13

    Unlike other creature types in Magic that are each only one word, the two words "Time Lord" represent a single creature subtype. Time Lord is the only two-word creature type.

  • 2023-10-13

    Neither "Time" nor "Lord" are creature types. Some older cards were printed with the subtype "Lord," but all of those cards have updated Oracle card text that removed that type.

  • 2023-10-13

    If an effect instructs you to choose a creature type, you may choose Time Lord.

  • 2023-10-13

    The Ninth Doctor's ability triggers during the untap step and goes onto the stack at the beginning of the next step (usually the upkeep). The additional upkeep is taken after that step, not after the untap step.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of The Ninth Doctor

7 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly — a printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall genuinely publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for The Ninth Doctor — a name search across every version, for the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only — no individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
