Description
Call the Scions, identified as card number 165 in the Battle for Zendikar set, is a distinct Sorcery from the 2015 Magic: The Gathering expansion. Designed by Winona Nelson, this card serves as a critical component for players navigating the Eldrazi invasion theme that defined the set's narrative. The card features the Devoid mechanic, meaning it has no color identity despite its green mana cost, allowing it to be included in decks that require color flexibility or specific mana constraints. When played, Call the Scions allows the caster to create two 1/1 colorless Eldrazi Scion creature tokens. These tokens possess a powerful activated ability: by sacrificing the token, the player can add one colorless mana to their pool. This mechanism provides a reliable resource acceleration engine, helping players cast larger spells faster than standard mana sources would allow. The flavor text accompanying the card alludes to Ulamog's progeny swarming the land, emphasizing the insatiable hunger of the titan and the draining of Zendikar's mana. For collectors, this Magic: The Gathering trading card represents a key piece of the Battle for Zendikar era. Completing a set of Battle for Zendikar cards offers a tangible connection to this pivotal moment in the game's history. Whether you are building a collection focused on specific mechanics or simply appreciate the art and design of the BFZ era, Call the Scions is a valuable addition to any serious collection. The platform is designed to facilitate easy discovery and acquisition of trading cards from various eras, including the impactful Battle for Zendikar release.
