Phyrexian Colossus

Description

The Phyrexian Colossus stands as one of the most imposing threats in Magic: The Gathering, originally released in the 2003 Eighth Edition set. As an Artifact Creature — Phyrexian Golem, this card demands a significant mana investment of seven generic mana but rewards the player with a massive 8/8 power and toughness. The card number 309★ identifies this star foil variation, which adds a distinct shimmer to the rare card's presentation. In gameplay, the Phyrexian Colossus is notoriously difficult to remove due to its ability to be blocked only by three or more creatures simultaneously. While it cannot untap naturally, players can pay eight life to untap it, allowing for aggressive turns. For collectors, this Eighth Edition release represents a key era in the game's history, offering a classic design that remains recognizable today. Whether you are building a thematic Phyrexian deck or completing your Eighth Edition collection, this star foil copy provides both aesthetic appeal and mechanical depth. The combination of high power, unique blocking constraints, and the prestigious star foil finish makes this card a valuable addition to any serious Magic: The Gathering library.
