Silkwrap

Description

Silkwrap is a white enchantment from the Magic: The Gathering Dragons of Tarkir set, released in 2015. Designed by David Gaillet, this card carries an uncommon rarity status within the set, making it a staple inclusion for collectors building comprehensive libraries. As a two-mana enchantment, it serves as an efficient answer to opposing threats with a mana value of three or less. The card’s mechanics allow players to exile a target creature controlled by an opponent until Silkwrap leaves the battlefield. Once the enchantment is destroyed or otherwise removed, the exiled creature returns to its owner's control. This temporary removal effect provides strategic flexibility, allowing players to neutralize immediate threats without permanently eliminating valuable assets from the opponent's deck. The flavor text, "Better scarves than scars," adds a touch of whimsy to the card’s identity, reflecting the set’s thematic elements. Collectors appreciate Silkwrap for its clean design and practical gameplay utility. It fits seamlessly into white-based strategies that focus on board control and temporary disruption. The card’s straightforward rules text and manageable mana cost make it accessible for new players while remaining relevant in constructed formats where efficient interaction is key. For those assembling a complete Dragons of Tarkir collection, this card represents an essential piece of the set’s white mana base. Whether you are a seasoned collector or a competitive player, this card provides both aesthetic appeal and functional value. Its enduring presence in the Tarkir block highlights its significance within the broader Magic: The Gathering universe.
