Swords to Plowshares

Description

The 2024 Modern Horizons 3 Commander subset brings a fresh foil treatment to one of Magic: The Gathering's most revered white spells. As card number 173 in the M3C set, Swords to Plowshares stands out as an Uncommon rarity that bridges decades of strategic gameplay with modern collectibility. The card’s instant speed and single white mana cost make it a cornerstone of efficient removal, a trait that has kept it relevant across countless formats and deck archetypes over the years. This release showcases the artwork by Jesper Ejsing, whose detailed illustrations have become synonymous with the brand's premium foil finishes. The foil treatment catches the light, adding a tactile and visual layer to the experience of handling the card.
