As a Rare foil card numbered 288, this product offers a distinct visual appeal with its shimmering finish, making it a desirable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection. Basri's Lieutenant is a Human Knight with a mana cost of three generic and one white mana, resulting in a mana value of four.

The creature possesses vigilance, allowing it to attack without tapping, and protection from multicolored cards, offering strategic defense. When Basri's Lieutenant enters the battlefield, it can place a +1/+1 counter on a target creature you control, enhancing its allies.

This ability allows for significant board presence and value generation over time.

The foil variant, in particular, offers a tactile and visual distinction that sets it apart from non-foil versions, appealing to those who value both the gameplay and the physical artifact.
