Description

The 2024 Magic: The Gathering Layla Hassan card, designated as card number 127 in the Assassin's Creed crossover set, brings a distinct narrative presence to the trading card game.

When this legendary creature enters the battlefield, or whenever one or more Assassins you control deal combat damage to a player, you can return a target historic card from your graveyard to your hand. This effect encourages the use of other Assassin creatures and historic artifacts or enchantments to maximize its potential. The card’s power and toughness are listed as three and four, providing a sturdy body for a creature of its cost. Artists and collectors alike appreciate the integration of the Assassin's Creed universe into Magic: The Gathering. The Assassin's Creed set code, ACR, identifies this release within the broader Magic: The Gathering catalog. While the card is printed with a rare rarity, its true value lies in its gameplay utility and the thematic connection to the popular video game franchise. The design and mechanics reflect the careful attention to detail that defines the Assassin's Creed crossover, making it a notable addition for enthusiasts of both the card game and the source material.
