Description
Released in 2005 as part of the Ravnica: City of Guilds expansion, Copy Enchantment is a rare enchantment card that has secured its place in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game community. Identified as card number 42 in the RAV set code, this card provides players with a unique mechanical advantage through its flexible entry effect. The card requires a mana cost of two generic mana and one blue mana to cast, making it a three-mana investment that fits into blue-based strategies. The core functionality of Copy Enchantment allows the controller to choose any enchantment already on the battlefield and have this card enter the game as a copy of that permanent. This mechanic introduces significant strategic depth, enabling players to replicate the effects of existing enchantments without paying their additional mana costs. For collectors, the card represents a key piece of the early Ravnica block, which expanded the game's lore into a complex urban setting. The card was illustrated by Joel Thomas, whose artwork complements the magical theme of the expansion. This card is valued for its simplicity and utility in various formats, appealing to both competitive players and casual collectors. Whether you are building a themed deck or simply acquiring notable cards from the era, this enchantment offers both nostalgic value and functional gameplay potential.
