Description

The Soulcipher Board // Cipherbound Spirit is a 2025 Magic: The Gathering artifact card from the Innistrad Remastered set, designated as card number 459. As an Uncommon rarity, this dual-faced card offers a unique gameplay experience through its transform mechanics, appealing to collectors and players who appreciate strategic depth in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The card is illustrated by Caio Monteiro, whose artistic vision brings the Innistrad Remastered aesthetic to life for this release. Soulcipher Board enters the battlefield as an artifact with a mana cost of {1}{U} and a mana value of 2. Its primary function revolves around omen counters, which serve as the catalyst for its transformative nature. Initially, the artifact begins with three omen counters placed upon it. Players can activate its ability by paying {1}{U} and tapping it to look at the top two cards of their library, choosing to put one into their graveyard. This action sets the stage for the card’s secondary phase. Whenever a creature card is moved to any graveyard from anywhere, an omen counter is removed from Soulcipher Board. This continuous interaction drives the card toward its transformation. Once the final omen counter is removed, the card transforms into Cipherbound Spirit. This mechanic encourages players to engage with graveyard interactions and library management, making Soulcipher Board a versatile piece in various Magic: The Gathering strategies. Collectors value this card for its intricate design and the dynamic gameplay it introduces, reflecting the rich lore and mechanical innovation of the Innistrad Remastered set.
