Description

Ember Beast, card number 155, is a creature card from the 2016 Magic: The Gathering expansion Conspiracy: Take the Crown. As a common foil variant, this card is a staple for collectors who appreciate the distinct aesthetic of the CN2 set. The card features artwork by David Rapoza, bringing the Smelting District’s dangerous fauna to life for players and enthusiasts alike. In gameplay, Ember Beast is a red Beast with a mana cost of {2}{R} and a mana value of 3. It enters the battlefield with power and toughness of 3/4. The card’s unique restriction prevents it from attacking or blocking alone, requiring support from other creatures to act independently. This mechanical limitation adds a layer of strategic depth, encouraging players to build synergistic teams rather than relying on single-card dominance. For collectors, the foil finish of the Conspiracy: Take the Crown set offers a shimmering quality that stands out in any binder or display. While common in print run, the foil treatment elevates the card’s visual appeal, making it a desirable addition for those completing set collections. The flavor text hints at the beast’s role in the Smelting District, serving many functions none of them willingly—a detail that adds narrative flavor to the card’s presence in the Magic universe. Whether you are a seasoned collector or new to the hobby, finding specific variants like the Ember Beast foil can enhance your collection. The Conspiracy: Take the Crown set remains a notable release in Magic history, and cards like Ember Beast represent the creative design and strategic variety that define the game.
