Built to Last

Description

Released in 2016 as part of the Kaladesh expansion, the Magic: The Gathering card Built to Last is a white Instant that provides a powerful tactical advantage for artifact-based strategies. Identified as card number 7 in the set, this foil common features a mana cost of one white mana and a mana value of one, making it highly efficient to cast during gameplay. The card’s rules text targets a creature to grant it +2/+2 until the end of the turn. Crucially, if the target is an artifact creature, it also gains indestructible until the end of the turn, protecting it from damage and destroy effects for a full turn cycle. This dual effect makes it a staple in decks that rely heavily on artifact synergies. The flavor text notes that Consulate-built automatons have a lifetime warranty, adding a touch of whimsical lore to the card’s mechanical utility. Whether you are building a competitive deck or simply expanding your Magic: The Gathering collection, this card offers both functional gameplay value and visual appeal. The artwork is created by Svetlin Velinov, whose style complements the set’s overall design language. Collectors often seek out foil versions for their enhanced presentation and durability, making this card a desirable addition to any serious binder or display case.
