Nine Lives

Description

The Nine Lives card, numbered 344 in the Core Set 2021 release, is a rare white enchantment from Magic: The Gathering. Designed by Paul Scott Canavan, this foil version offers a distinct visual finish for collectors who appreciate the aesthetic quality of premium print treatments within the M21 set code. The card functions as a white-colored enchantment with a mana cost of {1}{W}{W} and a mana value of 3. Gameplay-wise, Nine Lives provides a protective effect through the hexproof ability, ensuring it cannot be targeted by opponents. Its primary mechanic revolves around damage prevention and counter accumulation. When a source would deal damage to you, that damage is prevented, and an incarnation counter is placed on the enchantment. Once nine or more incarnation counters are on the card, it is exiled. The card features a high-stakes consequence: if it leaves the battlefield for any reason, the game ends. This unique risk-and-reward structure makes it a memorable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection, appealing to players and collectors interested in its specific rules interactions and foil finish. The Core Set 2021 release includes card number 344, Nine Lives, a white Enchantment with a mana cost of {1}{W}{W}. The foil treatment of Nine Lives adds to its desirability, making it a sought-after piece for those building themed collections or completing the rare subset of the set. Its intricate rules text and striking design make it a standout item for enthusiasts of the trading card game.
