Jaya Ballard

Description

Jaya Ballard serves as a formidable red Planeswalker in the Magic: The Gathering Commander 2021 set, identified by card number 175 and set code C21. Printed with a mana cost of {2}{R}{R}{R} and starting with 5 loyalty, this Mythic Rare card is designed to dominate the board through aggressive resource generation and graveyard recursion. The card’s abilities allow players to create mana specifically for instant and sorcery spells, discard cards to draw replacements, and ultimately cast spells directly from the graveyard while exiling them to prevent permanent loss. Art by Magali Villeneuve, the card is part of the 2021 Commander release, which focuses on legendary creatures and planeswalkers that define specific commander strategies. As a Mythic Rare, Jaya Ballard holds a prominent place in the set's hierarchy, appealing to collectors who seek high-rarity cards from modern Magic sets. Its rules text supports a strategy centered on spell density and graveyard interaction, making it a key component for decks built around red-based Planeswalker synergies. The 2021 Commander 2021 release features Jaya Ballard as a Mythic Rare Legendary Planeswalker card. The Jaya Ballard card number 175 is a standalone entry in the Commander 2021 checklist, distinct from other sets and expansions. Its ability to generate three red mana or cycle cards provides immediate board presence, while its ultimate ability transforms the graveyard into a secondary hand, offering continuous value throughout the game. This card is a staple for players looking to build powerful red commander decks or complete their collection of legendary Planeswalkers from the 2021 era.
