Description
The Time Sidewalk stands as a distinctive artifact within the 2021 Magic: The Gathering Mystery Booster Playtest Cards series, specifically identified as card number 31 in the CMB2 subset. Created by artist Steve Sunu, this rare sorcery card was designed to test experimental mechanics rather than serve standard competitive formats. Its unique ability allows players to take an extra turn after casting it, or, if found in their opening hand, exile the card to create four Time Walk token cards shuffled into their deck. This dual-effect design highlights Wizards of the Coast's approach to exploring powerful temporal mechanics in controlled environments. For collectors, Mystery Booster Playtest Cards offer a glimpse into the iterative design process of Magic: The Gathering, making them highly sought after by enthusiasts who value historical context and gameplay innovation. The Time Sidewalk is particularly notable for its high mana cost and significant impact, reflecting the experimental nature of the set. Collectors often seek these cards to complete their Mystery Booster Playtest collections or to appreciate the artistic and mechanical creativity behind Magic's development phases. The card's blue color identity and eight mana value make it a striking inclusion for any Magic: The Gathering trading card game collection focused on rare and unique playtest items.
