Ashiok, Dream Render

Description

Ashiok, Dream Render (card number 77993) is a Legendary Planeswalker card released in 2019 as part of the Magic Online Promos set. Printed by Wizards of the Coast, this foil variant features artwork by Cynthia Sheppard and carries an Uncommon rarity designation within the promotional checklist. The card’s mana cost of {1}{U/B}{U/B} allows it to be cast using either Blue or Black mana, fitting seamlessly into decks that utilize the Dimir color identity. In gameplay, Ashiok serves as a powerful control-oriented threat. Its static ability prevents opponents from searching their libraries, disrupting strategies reliant on card selection and consistency. The Planeswalker’s primary ability allows you to mill four cards from a target player’s library and then exile every opponent’s graveyard. This dual effect creates significant pressure by removing resources from the board while limiting future recovery options. With a starting loyalty of 5, the card offers durability against removal spells common in competitive formats. Collectors value this card for its distinct foil treatment and its association with the Magic Online Promos series. The 2019 release represents a specific era of promotional distribution, making it a notable piece for those tracking the history of digital-to-physical card releases. Its unique rules text and striking design make it a favorite among planeswalker enthusiasts and those interested in the strategic depth of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
