Writ of Return

Description

The Writ of Return promo card (PNCC 42p) from the 2022 New Capenna Commander Promos set is a rare foil sorcery designed by Kai Carpenter. This Magic: The Gathering trading card features a mana cost of {3}{B}{B} and a mana value of 5, utilizing black mana to execute its effect. As a promo release, this card is distinct from standard set prints, carrying the unique PNCC subset code that identifies its specific distribution channel. The card’s rules allow a player to return a target creature card from their graveyard to the battlefield in a tapped state. It also possesses the Cipher mechanic, which permits the spell to be exiled encoded on a creature you control. When that creature deals combat damage to a player, its controller may cast a copy of the encoded card without paying its mana cost. This dual functionality makes the card a versatile tool for graveyard interaction and recursive creature strategies in casual formats. The rare rarity designation and the promo status contribute to its appeal among those who focus on promotional variants.
