Opal Palace

Description

Opal Palace is a unique land card from the 2020 Magic Online Promos set, identified by card number 86114. Designed by Andreas Rocha, this Common foil card brings specialized utility to Commander formats through its distinct mana abilities. Unlike standard lands that produce single colors, Opal Palace allows players to add one mana of any color within their commander's color identity. The card’s secondary ability offers significant strategic depth for commanders. By paying one mana and tapping the land, players can add a colored mana token specifically to cast their commander. When used this way, the commander enters the battlefield with a number of +1/+1 counters equal to how many times it has been cast from the command zone during that game. This mechanic rewards repeated commander casting, turning Opal Palace into a powerful engine for aggressive or value-based strategies. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards appreciate this promo for its foil finish and its niche gameplay role. As a Common rarity card from the Magic Online Promos subset, it represents a specific era of digital-to-physical crossover releases. The card’s layout follows the standard Magic design language, ensuring it fits seamlessly into any collection alongside other modern staples. Its foil treatment adds visual appeal, making it a desirable addition for those who value both aesthetic and functional card design. Whether building a specialized commander deck or expanding a promotional card collection, Opal Palace stands out for its clever interaction with the commander rules. It exemplifies the creative design direction Magic Online Promos took to offer players unique tools not found in standard set releases. For enthusiasts of the game, this card represents a clever intersection of mechanics and collectibility, offering both gameplay utility and aesthetic value.
