Oona, Queen of the Fae

Description

Oona, Queen of the Fae is a distinct legendary creature card from the 2013 Modern Masters set, identified by the set code MMA and card number 193. As a Faerie Wizard with the legendary supertype, this card brings a unique strategic identity to the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The card features a mana cost of six, requiring three generic mana alongside two blue and two black mana symbols, reflecting its power level as a six-mana value legendary creature. The artwork for this card was created by Adam Rex, whose style contributes to the visual identity of the Modern Masters reprint series. Collectors often seek this card for its high-contrast color identity and the specific mechanical niche it occupies. Oona possesses flying, allowing her to evade ground-based blockers, and boasts a power and toughness of 5/5, making her a formidable presence on the battlefield. Her primary ability allows players to exile cards from an opponent's library. By paying a variable cost and choosing a color, the player exiles the top X cards. For each card of the chosen color among those exiled, a 1/1 blue and black Faerie Rogue creature token with flying is created. This mechanic offers significant board control and resource generation, appealing to players who enjoy complex interactions and token strategies. The card's blue and black color identity supports decks focused on control, removal, and temporary advantage. For collectors, Modern Masters represents a curated selection of powerful cards from previous Standard-legal sets, reprinted in a consistent black border design. Oona, Queen of the Fae stands out due to her complex ability and striking illustration. Whether you are a long-time player or new to the game, exploring the Modern Masters expansion provides insight into the game's evolving mechanics and artistic direction.
