Kiora, the Rising Tide

Description

The 2025 Foundations Promos 45p card featuring Kiora, the Rising Tide introduces a Legendary Merfolk Noble to the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Printed with a Rare rarity status and designated as a promo card, this piece features the artist Julian Kok Joon Wen. The card's mana cost of {2}{U} and mana value of 3 provide a balanced entry point for blue-based strategies. Kiora, the Rising Tide offers distinct gameplay mechanics that appeal to strategic deck builders. Upon entering the battlefield, the creature allows the player to draw two cards and then discard two cards. This effect provides immediate card advantage while managing hand size. The card also features a threshold ability that activates whenever Kiora attacks. If there are seven or more cards in your graveyard, you may create Scion of the Deep, a legendary 8/8 blue Octopus creature token. This token creation capability highlights the card's potential for late-game impact and board presence. As a component of the Foundations Promos set, this card carries the set code PFDN and serves as a notable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection. The combination of its legendary status, merfolk subtype, and noble classification makes it a versatile asset for players focusing on tribal or graveyard-themed decks. Collectors interested in the Foundations Promos series will find this 2025 release to be a significant part of the set's identity. The card's specific rules text and artistic presentation make it a desirable item for those who appreciate the intricate mechanics of the trading card game.
