Arcanis the Omnipotent

Description

The 2017 Magic: The Gathering Commander product features Arcanis the Omnipotent, a legendary blue wizard creature designated as card number 80. Created by artist Justin Sweet, this rare card is a staple for players seeking powerful spell-casting options within the Commander format. As a six-mana creature, Arcanis offers significant impact on the battlefield through its distinct abilities and robust stats. The card’s rules text provides two key abilities that define its role in gameplay. Players can tap the creature to draw three cards, offering immediate card advantage and resource acceleration. Alternatively, spending two blue mana allows the owner to return Arcanis from the battlefield to their hand, ensuring the creature remains available for future turns rather than being permanently lost to removal spells. This flexibility makes it a resilient threat in long-form games. Its flavor text, "He has journeyed where none have been before. Now he returns to ensure that none follow," adds narrative depth that complements its mechanical versatility. Whether you are a player aiming to integrate Arcanis into your deck or a collector preserving the 2017 Commander set, this card represents a significant piece of Magic history. The combination of Justin Sweet’s artistry and the card’s strategic value ensures its enduring appeal among the trading card community.
