Description
The Gathering Stone, identified as card number 257 within the 2026 Lorwyn Eclipsed expansion, serves as a pivotal Artifact in the Magic: The Gathering universe. Designed by artist Paolo Parente, this Uncommon card introduces a versatile mechanic that adapts to your deck strategy. Upon entering the battlefield, players select a specific creature type, reducing the mana cost of spells matching that selection by one. This cost reduction provides a tangible advantage during gameplay, allowing for more aggressive or complex spell sequences. Beyond its immediate utility, the Gathering Stone enhances card advantage through its triggered abilities. When the artifact enters play and at the start of each upkeep, it allows the controller to look at the top card of their library. If that card matches the chosen creature type, it can be revealed and moved directly to the hand, or placed into the graveyard. This dual function makes it a favorite among collectors who appreciate cards with interactive gameplay elements. For those building collections focused on the Lorwyn Eclipsed series, this card represents a key piece of the set's strategic landscape.
