Millstone

Description

This release is categorized as an Uncommon rarity artifact that requires a two-mana cost to cast. The card features a foil finish, offering a distinct visual treatment compared to the standard nonfoil version found in booster packs. The artwork for this card was created by illustrator Yeong-Hao Han, whose style defines the visual identity of this card in the set. Millstone functions as a permanent artifact on the battlefield. Its primary ability allows a player to tap the card to force a target opponent to mill two cards from the top of their library. This mechanic provides a straightforward method of resource denial without dealing direct damage. The flavor text accompanying the card reads, "Minds, like mountains, are never so grand and mighty that they can't be reduced to dust," adding narrative depth to its mechanical purpose. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering often track this card within the Magic 2014 base set checklist. The foil variant is particularly sought after by those who appreciate the shimmering finish applied to Uncommon cards during this era. As a named artifact in the M14 set, Millstone serves as a recognizable piece for completing full set collections or for building focused libraries around artifact synergies. The card's simplicity and clear mechanical function make it a staple in the design philosophy of the Magic 2014 core set. Whether used in casual play or collected for its aesthetic foil treatment, the Millstone remains a defined component of the 2013 Magic: The Gathering landscape.
