Reach of Branches

Description

Released in 2008 as part of the Morningtide expansion, the Reach of Branches card stands as a notable piece of Magic: The Gathering history. Crafted as a rare foil variant, this card is cataloged under the set code MOR and carries the unique identifier 132. Designed by artist Scott Hampton, the card embodies the green mana philosophy central to the game’s lore and mechanics. As a Kindred Instant — Treefolk, Reach of Branches offers strategic depth through its ability to create a 2/5 green Treefolk Shaman creature token. Its secondary effect allows players to return it from the graveyard to their hand whenever a Forest enters the battlefield, providing consistent value for deck builders focusing on land-centric strategies. This interplay between token generation and recursion makes it a functional and collectible asset for enthusiasts. Collectors of vintage Magic cards often seek out Morningtide foil cards for their distinct shimmering finish and historical significance in the game’s evolution. Whether you are building a comprehensive set or acquiring specific cards for gameplay, this foil variant represents a tangible connection to the rich tradition of Magic: The Gathering.
