Description
Capital Punishment is a foil rare sorcery card from the 2016 Conspiracy: Take the Crown expansion, designed to drive the social deduction gameplay of the draft format. This card is number 40 in the set and was created by artist Lake Hurwitz. It features a mana cost of {4}{B}{B} and is a black sorcery with a mana value of 6.

This mechanic makes it a pivotal tool for controlling the board state through negotiation and pressure. Collectors appreciate the card for its role in the Conspiracy draft environment, where multiplayer dynamics are essential. The foil finish adds to its visual appeal, making it a sought-after piece for those building complete sets of the expansion. As part of the CN2 set code, this release is a key component for enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game who value strategic depth and collectible design.
