Description
Throes of Chaos, designated as card number 526, is an uncommon red sorcery from the Magic: The Gathering Jumpstart: Historic Horizons set released in 2021. Designed by Igor Kieryluk, this card is a staple for players seeking explosive, high-impact plays within the Historic format. Its primary appeal lies in its dual-mechanic structure, which provides flexibility during gameplay. The Cascade ability allows players to exile cards from the top of their library to potentially cast a cheaper nonland spell for free, while the Retrace mechanic enables casting the spell from the graveyard by discarding a land. This combination makes it a versatile tool for deck builders looking to maintain momentum or recover from setbacks. Collectors appreciate this piece for its role in the Jumpstart: Historic Horizons series, which revitalized the Historic format with a curated selection of powerful cards. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your collection of Magic: The Gathering essentials, Throes of Chaos offers both strategic utility and nostalgic value for fans of the game's rich history.
