Description
Released in 2005 as part of the Ravnica: City of Guilds expansion, this Magic: The Gathering card features the sorcery Life from the Loam, identified by set code RAV and card number 172. Designed by Terese Nielsen, the foil treatment adds a distinct visual appeal for collectors of this era. As a green mana card with a mana value of two, it allows players to return up to three land cards from their graveyard to their hand, a mechanic that has made it a staple in many strategies over the years. Collectors often seek this print for its historical significance within the Ravnica block and its enduring utility in gameplay. The foil finish enhances its desirability among those building comprehensive sets or looking for high-quality examples of early 2000s Magic: The Gathering art and design.
