Description
Released in 2001 as part of the Planeshift expansion, Draco (card number 131) is a formidable presence in the Magic: The Gathering universe. This rare artifact creature boasts a massive mana cost of {16} and commands the board with a 9/9 power and toughness spread. The card features artwork by Sam Wood, capturing the essence of the dragon archetype within the set's distinctive design. Draco introduces the Domain mechanic, which significantly impacts its casting cost and upkeep sacrifice. By controlling basic land types, players can reduce the cost to cast Draco by {2} for each land type, potentially lowering the {16} requirement. Similarly, the upkeep sacrifice cost of {10} is also reduced by {2} per basic land type controlled, making this high-cost creature more manageable in specific deck configurations. Flying ensures it remains difficult to block, adding to its strategic value. Collectors appreciate this card for its intricate rules interaction and its status as a key rare from the Planeshift set, making it a notable addition to any Magic: The Gathering trading card game collection.
