Description
Designed by Jason Chan, this planar card belongs to the Bolas's Meditation Realm family, providing players with a distinct mechanic that influences both their hand management and the unpredictable chaos of the game. The card’s design emphasizes its role as a dynamic board state modifier, shifting the flow of play with every turn. The gameplay of Pools of Becoming revolves around two primary effects. At the beginning of your end step, you can rearrange your hand by putting those cards on the bottom of your library in any order, then draw that many cards. This ability allows for significant hand filtering, letting players discard unwanted cards while retaining the option to redraw them later. This mechanic is particularly valuable for managing card advantage and optimizing future draws. Additionally, whenever chaos ensues, you reveal the top three cards of your planar deck. Each of the revealed cards' chaos abilities triggers, adding an element of surprise and variability to the game. These chaos abilities can alter the battlefield, summon creatures, or provide other effects that keep opponents guessing. Collectors value this card for its intricate design and its role in the Planechase format, where planar cards dictate the overarching rules and chaos of the game. Pools of Becoming stands out for its ability to manipulate the player's hand while simultaneously interacting with the chaotic elements of the planar deck. This dual functionality makes it a favorite among players who enjoy strategic depth and unpredictability. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your collection, this card offers a compelling addition to your Magic: The Gathering arsenal. Its presence in the game ensures that every match is a unique experience, driven by the interplay between hand management and planar chaos.
