Description
Dance of Many is a blue Enchantment from the 2009 Magic: The Gathering Masters Edition III set, identified by card number 34 and the ME3 set code. Designed by Sandra Everingham, this uncommon card provides a distinct strategic interaction that appeals to players who enjoy temporary board presence and creature manipulation. The card’s mana cost of {U}{U} makes it accessible early in the game, allowing for immediate impact on the battlefield. The card’s rules text creates a temporary copy of a target nontoken creature. When Dance of Many enters the battlefield, it generates a token that mirrors the chosen creature. However, the enchantment has a short lifespan; at the beginning of your upkeep, you must pay {U}{U} to keep it in play. If the enchantment leaves the battlefield for any reason, the token is exiled. Furthermore, if the token itself leaves the battlefield, you must sacrifice Dance of Many as well. This creates a dynamic where the enchantment acts as a temporary amplifier that eventually forces its own removal or a significant mana investment. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often seek out Masters Edition III for its curated selection of powerful reprints and unique interactions. Dance of Many stands out for its clever design, balancing immediate value with a built-in expiration timer. It is a favorite among commanders who appreciate cards that offer flexibility and temporary power spikes. Whether you are building a blue-focused deck or simply appreciate clever enchantment mechanics, this card offers a unique gameplay experience. The 2009 release remains a significant part of the game’s history, and Dance of Many is a notable inclusion in any serious collection.
