Radiant Destiny

Description

Radiant Destiny, designated as card number 18p, is a foil promotional Enchantment from the 2018 Rivals of Ixalan Promos set. Designed by Emrah Elmasli, this Magic: The Gathering card offers a distinct strategic option for players who enjoy board-slowing or buffing strategies. The card costs two generic mana and one white mana to cast, placing it at a mana value of three within the game's framework. The card’s primary mechanic revolves around the concept of Ascension. When a player controls ten or more permanents, they gain the city’s blessing for the remainder of the game. This blessing acts as a powerful enabler for Radiant Destiny's secondary effect. Upon entering the battlefield, the controller chooses a creature type. All creatures of that chosen type receive a +1/+1 boost. If the city’s blessing is active, those same creatures also gain vigilance, allowing them to attack without tapping. For collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game cards, the 18p designation signifies its status as a promo card, often sought after for completion or specific aesthetic appeal. The foil finish adds a premium tactile quality to the card, making it a desirable addition to any collection. The white color identity ensures it fits into decks focused on healing, protection, and broad creature support. Understanding the Ascend mechanic is key to appreciating the card's potential power in long games where board presence is established early.
