Description
Thought Erasure, card number 206 from the Guilds of Ravnica expansion, is a distinct sorcery card in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Released in 2018, this uncommon card features a mana cost of two generic and one each of blue and black mana, creating a versatile spell for players who control those colors. The card’s effect allows the caster to force a target opponent to reveal their hand, then choose a nonland card to discard, providing direct interaction and information gathering. Additionally, the spell includes the Surveil 1 ability, letting the player look at the top card of their library and move it to their graveyard, which aids in future spell casting and graveyard strategies. Designed by Anna Steinbauer, Thought Erasure is a staple for collectors building the Guilds of Ravnica set. The GRN set code helps identify this print within the broader Magic: The Gathering catalog. Collectors often seek this card for its clever hybrid effect that combines removal with card advantage, making it a notable piece for any serious collection. The flavor text, "It's truly the highest honor, isn't it? To be remembered? Pity for you," adds narrative depth that enhances its appeal to fans of the Ravnica plane. Whether you are completing a set or looking for a unique addition to your Magic: The Gathering library, Thought Erasure represents a well-crafted piece of the 2018 release.
