Eidolon of the Great Revel

Description

Released in 2014 as part of the Journey into Nyx expansion, Eidolon of the Great Revel is card number 94 in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by Cyril Van Der Haegen, this enchantment creature spirit carries a mana cost of {R}{R} and possesses a power and toughness of 2/2. The card’s primary appeal lies in its distinctive rules text, which dictates that whenever any player casts a spell with a mana value of three or less, Eidolon deals two damage to that player. This mechanic makes it a notable inclusion for collectors interested in the strategic depth of the Theros block. As a rare card within the Journey into Nyx set, identified by the JOU set code, Eidolon of the Great Revel represents a specific era of Magic design where enchantment creatures played pivotal roles in deck construction. The flavor text, referencing Xenagos reveling while Theros burned, adds narrative context to the card’s aggressive nature. Collectors often seek this card for its historical significance within the set and its unique interaction with low-mana spells. The card’s design and functionality reflect the artistic and mechanical themes introduced in the Journey into Nyx expansion, making it a valuable piece for enthusiasts of the Magic: The Gathering universe.
