Description
The Court of Ambition is a black enchantment that serves as a potent resource engine within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Released in 2020 as part of the Magic Online Promos set, this card carries the card number 85978 and features a foil finish that distinguishes it from standard printed copies. The card was illustrated by Ravenna Tran, whose artwork complements the card's aggressive and strategic nature. Mechanically, the card begins by forcing the opponent to become the monarch, immediately shifting the game's dynamic. As the turn cycle progresses, it pressures opponents to discard cards to avoid losing life, with the penalty doubling if the controller holds the monarch title. This dual-layered effect makes it a standout piece for players who enjoy controlling the board state while depleting their opponent's hand. The foil treatment adds a layer of visual appeal, making it a desirable addition to any focused collection. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a catalog of rare promos, this card represents a significant piece of modern TCG history. The growing inventory ensures that collectors can find the specific variants they need without compromising on quality or authenticity.
