About Wandering Mage
Wandering Mage, Creature — human cleric wizard, designed by Pete Venters first released in Jun, 1996 in the set Alliances and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.40.
The Wandering Mage card would be beneficial in a control-oriented deck that focuses on protecting key creatures and planeswalkers while also having the flexibility to disrupt opponent's strategies. While it offers versatile protection options, there may be better cards available depending on the specific deck strategy and format, such as Teferi, Time Raveler for its broader utility and impact on the game. Wandering Mage could see play in certain metagames where its abilities align well with the deck's game plan, but its effectiveness would depend on the overall deck composition and the current state of the format.

The second ability checks that the targeted creature is a Cleric or Wizard only at the time the ability is activated and at the time it resolves. It doesn’t check at the time the damage is actually prevented.
