Description
Relic Bind, designated as card number 71 in the 1994 Magic: The Gathering Legends expansion, offers a distinct mechanical interaction for players and collectors alike. As an Enchantment — Aura, this card allows the owner to target an artifact controlled by an opponent, creating a strategic link between the two permanents. The card’s rules text provides a choice whenever the enchanted artifact becomes tapped: the controller may deal 1 damage to a target player or planeswalker, or grant 1 life to a target player. This duality makes it a unique piece of the early Magic: The Gathering lore and gameplay history. The card features an Uncommon rarity status and was illustrated by Christopher Rush, whose work contributes to the set's visual identity. For those building a Legends collection or studying the evolution of artifact interaction in Magic: The Gathering, this card represents a significant piece of the franchise's foundational mechanics. Its enduring appeal lies in its clever design and historical significance within the game's first major expansion.
