Buckling Blow

Description

The 2019 Flesh and Blood WTR058 Buckling Blow Rainbow parallel represents a distinctive variant within the early WTR set, offering collectors a unique aesthetic treatment for this aggressive Guardian action card. Designed by Nathaniel Himawan, this Unlimited variation features the signature rainbow foil finish that distinguishes it from the standard base print, making it a focal point for those building specialized collections of the WTR expansion. In gameplay, Buckling Blow serves as a high-impact attack option for Guardian players, requiring four mana to pitch two cards and delivering seven power with three defense. The card’s strategic value lies in its Crush ability, which allows the player to place a -1 durability counter on an opponent's equipment when dealing four or more damage. This mechanical depth ensures the card remains a relevant piece of the game's ecosystem, adding another layer of interest for players who appreciate both the art and the utility of the release. For collectors, the Rainbow parallel is sought after not only for its visual appeal but also for its representation of the early era of Flesh and Blood trading card game development. The WTR set established many foundational mechanics and character interactions that continue to influence the game today. Owning this parallel allows enthusiasts to preserve a piece of that history with a premium finish. Whether you are completing a set of WTR parallels or looking to add a visually stunning Guardian attack to your collection, the Buckling Blow Rainbow stands out as a key piece for any serious Flesh and Blood enthusiast.
