Gruul Keyrune

Description

The Gruul Keyrune, numbered 230 in the 2013 Gatecrash expansion, is a notable foil artifact in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Created by artist Daniel Ljunggren, this card is categorized as an uncommon rarity, making it a consistent addition to booster packs for collectors and players alike. As an artifact with a converted mana cost of three, the Gruul Keyrune offers flexible gameplay utility. Its activated ability allows players to tap the card to produce either one red or one green mana symbol, providing crucial flexibility during the early game. Furthermore, by sacrificing two mana—one red and one green—the artifact can transform into a 3/2 Beast artifact creature with trample until the end of the turn. This dual functionality makes it a strategic asset for both resource management and aggressive creature strategies. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering often seek out foil variants for their shimmering finish and visual appeal. The foil treatment of the Gruul Keyrune highlights the card's details, adding to its desirability among enthusiasts of the Gatecrash set. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your catalog of rare artifacts, this card represents a key piece of the Izzet and Gruul guilds' influence on the Ravnica block.
