Description
Released in 2017 as part of the Amonkhet Promos series, this Magic: The Gathering trading card game card features the iconic Aven Mindcensor. Identified by card number 5s and illustrated by Eric Deschamps, this rare foil variant is a staple in the Commander format. The card depicts a Bird Wizard with the mana cost of {2}{W} and power/toughness of 2/1, offering both Flash and Flying abilities. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Aven Mindcensor is celebrated for its strategic utility. The card’s ability forces opponents searching their libraries to reveal only the top four cards, providing a powerful defensive mechanism against search-based strategies. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a collection of premium promotional cards, this piece represents a key moment in Magic’s modern history.
