Rishadan Footpad

Description

Released in 1999 as part of the Mercadian Masques expansion, the Rishadan Footpad (card number 94) remains a staple for collectors of Magic: The Gathering. This uncommon card, illustrated by Adam Rex, captures the gritty essence of the Mercadian setting through its depiction of a Human Pirate creature. For enthusiasts completing the MMQ set, this foil version offers a distinct visual appeal that complements the era's design language. The card’s mechanical identity centers on its disruptive entry effect: when played, it forces each opponent to sacrifice a permanent of their choice unless they pay a cost of two mana. This ability makes it a memorable piece for players interested in the strategic history of the format and for collectors who appreciate the tactical depth of early expansions. Whether you are building a comprehensive collection of 1999 releases or focusing on specific creature types, this card provides a tangible connection to a pivotal moment in TCG history. The combination of its clever flavor text and potent gameplay effect ensures its place among the most discussed cards of the block.
