## Description

This mythic rare enchantment creature card features the iconic artwork by Eric Deschamps and carries a mana cost of {2}{W}{U}, making it a pivotal component for decks built around white and blue strategies. As a legendary creature with 6 power and 5 toughness, Ephara brings significant presence to the battlefield. Ephara’s unique design includes a devotion mechanic that determines whether she enters the battlefield as a creature. As long as your devotion to white and blue is less than seven, she remains an enchantment rather than a creature. Once the devotion threshold is met, she becomes a formidable 6/5 threat with the indestructible keyword. This duality allows players to utilize her abilities while protecting her from removal spells, adding strategic depth to gameplay. At the beginning of each upkeep, if another creature entered the battlefield under your control last turn, you draw a card. This ability rewards aggressive or synergistic deck builds, providing card advantage that can turn the tide of the game. Collectors and players alike value this card for its powerful mechanics and the prestige associated with mythic rare cards in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The foil treatment adds a shimmering quality to the card, enhancing its visual appeal and collectibility. Whether you are a dedicated player looking to strengthen your deck or a collector seeking to complete the Born of the Gods set, Ephara, God of the Polis offers both functional utility and aesthetic beauty.
