Aethergeode Miner

Description

The 2017 Aether Revolt Promos Aethergeode Miner stands as a distinct entry in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game landscape. Designed as a promotional release, this card carries the catalog number 4s and is printed with a rare foil finish, giving it a shimmering appeal that collectors appreciate. The card features artwork by Winona Nelson, who brings the character to life with her distinctive style. As a Creature — Dwarf Scout, Aethergeode Miner costs one white mana to cast and boasts a mana value of two. Its power and toughness are listed as 3/1, making it a modest but functional presence on the battlefield. The card’s design emphasizes its mechanical utility, which is central to its identity within the game. The rules text describes a creature that generates energy counters when it attacks and can be exiled and returned to the battlefield by paying those energy counters. This mechanic ties directly into the aether theme of the era, offering players a resource-generating option that differs from standard combat roles. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering promo cards often seek out releases from this period due to their unique distribution methods and distinct card numbers. This foil version of Aethergeode Miner serves as a tangible piece of that promotional history. For investors in TCG memorabilia, promo cards from 2017 represent a specific moment in the game's evolution, capturing the aesthetic and mechanical shifts of that year. The card remains a recognizable piece for those building collections focused on the Aether Revolt block or general Magic promo history.
