Description
Released in 1995, the Magic: The Gathering Fourth Edition set remains a cornerstone for vintage collectors and players alike. This product focuses on card number 326, known as Iron Star. Illustrated by Dan Frazier, this artifact card serves as a fundamental piece in many early game strategies. The card costs a single mana to cast and provides a unique defensive capability: whenever a player casts a red spell, you may pay one mana to gain one life. This mechanic allows players to stabilize their position during aggressive matches, making it a valuable tool for red-based decks. Collectors often seek this card to complete set runs or to add historical depth to their vintage collections. The Fourth Edition is renowned for its comprehensive inclusion of previously printed cards, solidifying its place in TCG history. For those interested in the evolution of Magic gameplay, the Iron Star represents a simple yet effective design philosophy from the game's early days.
