Captain's Call

Description

Released in 2012 as part of the Magic: The Gathering M13 core set, Captain's Call is a white sorcery card identified by card number 9 in the set. Designed by Greg Staples, this product serves as a foundational piece for players building aggressive white decks or collectors seeking complete M13 sets. The card requires four mana to cast and provides immediate board presence by generating three 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens upon resolution. This functionality makes it a staple for strategies focused on overwhelming opponents with creature count rather than individual card strength. Collectors value this card for its iconic status within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game history and its representation of the M13 era's design philosophy. The flavor text, attributed to Rayel Vanger, adds narrative depth, asking who has the courage to face certain death. As a common rarity, it remains accessible for hobbyists looking to add versatile spells to their collections. Whether used in gameplay to establish a foothold or kept as a display piece, Captain's Call represents a key moment in the evolution of Magic: The Gathering card design.
