Oblation

Description

Oblation, designated as card number 83 in the 2014 Commander set (C14), is a distinct addition to the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Printed as a Rare, this card features a mana cost of two generic and one white mana, positioning it as a three-mana Instant that fits naturally into white-aligned decks. The card’s primary effect allows the controller to target a nonland permanent, shuffling it into its owner’s library in exchange for drawing two cards. This mechanic provides a unique way to cycle through options or remove unwanted artifacts and enchantments without destroying them permanently. For collectors of the Commander series, this card represents a specific era of design and gameplay mechanics. Artists like Doug Chaffee have contributed to the visual identity of these releases, making each card a piece of TCG history. The flavor text, "A richer people could give more but they could never give as much," adds narrative depth to the card's function. Whether you are building a library or completing the Commander set, Oblation offers both strategic utility and collectible value. Its straightforward yet impactful effect makes it a memorable part of the 2014 expansion.
