Darksteel Ingot

Description

The Darksteel Ingot is an uncommon artifact from the Magic 2014 (M14) core set, designed by Martina Pilcerova for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified as card number 207 in the M14 set, this piece of equipment has remained a staple in casual and constructed play due to its straightforward yet powerful effect. With a mana cost of {3}, it provides a mana value of 3, making it accessible for early-game strategies. Its rules text grants the card the indestructible keyword, meaning effects that say "destroy" do not affect it, while its tap ability allows players to add one mana of any color to their mana pool. This flexibility supports various deck archetypes that rely on color fixing or accelerated mana ramps. Collectors often seek out the M14 printing for its clean design and historical significance as part of the Modern Horizon lineage. The flavor text references Mirrodin, adding a layer of lore continuity for fans of the plane's history. It serves as a reliable component for builders looking to enhance their artifact collections or improve their in-game mana consistency.
