Start // Finish

Description

Released in 2020 as part of the Amonkhet Remastered expansion, the Start // Finish card (number 264) represents a unique entry in Magic: The Gathering's history of double-faced mechanics. Illustrated by Magali Villeneuve, this uncommon card bridges the gap between instant speed interaction and sorcery-phase resolution, offering players strategic flexibility through its split layout. The card’s design reflects the distinct color identity of white and black, requiring a mana cost of two generic and one white mana for the instant half, and two generic with one black mana for the sorcery half. This mana value of six positions it as a significant play in the late game, allowing casters to choose the timing that best suits their board state. Collectors appreciate this piece for its elegant duality and the seamless integration of two powerful effects into a single card slot. For enthusiasts of Magic: The Gathering, this release offers a tangible connection to the Amonkhet block's themes of mortality and ambition. The Amonkhet Remastered set was designed to bring popular cards from the original Amonkhet and Hour of Devastation sets into a cohesive experience, and Start // Finish stands out as a prime example of efficient card design. Its presence in The catalog highlights the enduring appeal of classic mechanics reimagined for modern collectors. Whether you are building a themed collection or seeking to complete your Amonkhet Remastered binder, this card provides a compelling focal point. As you expand your holdings, this card serves as a testament to the creative depth found within the Amonkhet Remastered series.
