Description
Released in 2005 as part of the Ravnica: City of Guilds expansion, Hour of Reckoning stands as a formidable presence in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified by card number 21 in the RAV set code, this foil rare sorcery commands a mana cost of four generic and three white mana, reflecting its high mana value of seven. The gameplay of Hour of Reckoning centers on a powerful board-clearing effect that destroys all nontoken creatures on the battlefield. A key feature for collectors and players alike is the Convoke mechanic, which allows creatures to assist in casting the spell by tapping to pay for generic or colored mana costs. This interaction adds strategic depth, making the card a versatile tool for controlling the game state. Art by Randy Gallegos complements the card’s thematic weight, though the visual focus remains on its mechanical impact. For investors and hobbyists, this product represents a significant piece of Magic: The Gathering history. Collectors often seek out the foil version for its shimmering finish and historical significance. Whether you are building a complete Ravnica set or adding a high-impact card to your collection, this release offers both aesthetic appeal and gameplay utility.
