Description
The Flame-Wreathed Phoenix stands out in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game as a powerful red creature from the 2014 Born of the Gods expansion. As card number 97 in the set, this Mythic Rare features a striking foil treatment that enhances its visual appeal for serious collectors. Designed by artist James Ryman, the card depicts a formidable Phoenix with a mana cost of {2}{R}{R} and a power/toughness of 3/3. Beyond its aesthetic value, this card offers significant gameplay utility. It possesses the Flying ability and a unique Tribute mechanic that allows an opponent to place +1/+1 counters on it upon entry. If tribute is not paid, the Phoenix gains haste and a triggered ability that returns it to its owner's hand upon death, making it a resilient asset in many deck archetypes. The Born of the Gods set remains a favorite among TCG enthusiasts for its intricate mechanics and thematic depth. Adding the Flame-Wreathed Phoenix to your collection provides both a functional tool for gameplay and a high-quality piece of Magic history. Whether you are building a competitive deck or completing a full set, this card represents a key component of the Born of the Gods era.
