Description
Smelt-Ward Gatekeepers (Card #39) is a red Common creature from the 2013 Dragon's Maze expansion in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Illustrated by Daarken, this foil variant features a Human Warrior with a mana cost of three generic and one red mana, resulting in a power and toughness of 2/4. The card's primary effect triggers upon entering the battlefield: if you control two or more Gates, you gain control of a target creature an opponent controls until end of turn, untap it, and grant it haste. For Magic: The Gathering collectors, this card represents a significant piece of the Dragon's Maze set identity. The foil treatment adds a distinct visual appeal that distinguishes it from the nonfoil versions typically found in booster packs. Collectors often seek out this card number to complete their Dragon's Maze collection or to build themed decks focused on Gate strategies. The card remains a recognizable part of the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem, appealing to both veteran players who remember its era and new collectors exploring the game's history.
