Description
Aurification is a white enchantment card released as part of the Onslaught expansion in 2002, serving as card number 6 in the set's sequence. Designed by illustrator Gary Ruddell, this foil variant captures the distinct aesthetic of the early 2000s Magic: The Gathering era. The card costs four mana and introduces a unique mechanic: whenever a creature deals damage to you, it places a gold counter on that creature. These countered creatures become Walls with defender, effectively neutralizing threats while simultaneously building a resource pool for future turns. When the enchantment leaves play, all gold counters are removed, creating a dynamic risk-reward dynamic that appeals to strategic players. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Onslaught set or to utilize its specific interaction in limited formats. The foil treatment adds visual appeal, making it a desirable piece for enthusiasts of vintage Magic cards.
