Duress

Description

Duress is a common black sorcery from the Magic: The Gathering Core Set 2019 release, carrying the card number 94. Released in 2018, this card allows players to target an opponent and force them to reveal their hand. The controller then chooses a noncreature, nonland card from that hand, which the opponent must discard. The foil treatment applied to this version of Duress provides a reflective surface that distinguishes it from the nonfoil print run. The card is numbered 94 in the Core Set 2019 checklist. The card was illustrated by Steven Belledin, whose artwork accompanies the card's rules text and flavor quote. While the base version is straightforward, the foil variant appeals to those who appreciate the tactile and visual differences between print finishes. For players, Duress remains a functional tool for information gathering and resource denial. The one black mana cost makes it easily playable in early game turns. The foil version of this card does not alter its gameplay function but serves as a collectible item for enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The product is identified by its set code M19 and its position as the 94th card in the expanded checklist.
