Description
This product covers the Cursed Scroll, designated as card number 79 within the OLEP series. As a rare artifact, the card features a mana cost of one and offers a strategic gameplay effect: for three mana and tapping the artifact, players can choose a card name and reveal a random card from their hand to deal two damage to any target. Designed by D. Alexander Gregory, this card represents a distinct era in Magic history, focusing on league incentives rather than standard retail distribution. Collectors often seek out pieces from the Oversized League Prizes series due to their limited availability and historical significance in the game's development. The oversized format provides a different tactile experience compared to standard cards, making it a notable addition for enthusiasts of vintage Magic memorabilia. Understanding the context of the 1999 release helps collectors appreciate the evolution of card design and distribution strategies during Magic's early years. This product page serves as a reference for the Cursed Scroll's attributes, including its type line and rules text, ensuring accurate identification for those building their vintage collections.
