The Griffin Sentinel foil card, numbered 21 in the Core Set 2020 (M20) release, is a white creature card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Released in 2019 and illustrated by Warren Mahy, this common foil variant offers collectors a shimmering finish on a staple white mana card. The card depicts a Griffin with a mana cost of two generic mana and one white mana, resulting in a total mana value of three. As a Griffin type creature, it possesses one power and three toughness. Its key abilities include flying, allowing it to bypass ground blockers, and vigilance, meaning it can block or use activated abilities without tapping. Flavor text notes that once a griffin sentinel adopts a territory, only death can force it to betray its post. This foil finish highlights the card's identity within the M20 base set, appealing to those who appreciate the visual distinction of rare card treatments on common creatures. Collectors seeking to build diverse Magic: The Gathering collections often value foil commons for their aesthetic appeal and ease of acquisition. The Griffin Sentinel remains a recognizable element of the Core Set 2020 checklist, representing the classic fantasy creature design that defines the game's early-game strategy.
