Context

This printing is one of 3 catalogued treatments from ME4 — 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 #221 of *Masters Edition IV*, the set that shipped alongside the January 2011 Masters Edition IV release.

Card type: Artifact, printed at uncommon. Uncommons fill the middle-tier slots in a standard booster configuration. Mana cost: {6} (6 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 #20,859 in Commander, putting it in the fringe-play tier of the format's playable pool.
