Rakdos Guildmage

Description

The Rakdos Guildmage is a 2/2 Zombie Shaman creature from the 2019 RNA Guild Kit, designated as card number 69 with an uncommon rarity. Designed by Jeremy Jarvis, this Magic: The Gathering card features a mana cost of two generic mana and either a black or red mana symbol, reflecting its dual-color identity within the guild's mechanics. As a staple of the Rakdos faction, it appeals to collectors who focus on specific guild narratives and thematic completeness within the Rivals of Ixalan block. The card's abilities offer versatile tactical options for gameplay. By sacrificing a card from hand, the Guildmage can reduce a target creature's power and toughness significantly. Alternatively, players can generate a one-turn Goblin token with haste, providing immediate board presence before the token is exiled. This combination of removal and token generation makes it a functional and desirable piece for enthusiasts of the format. For collectors, the RNA Guild Kit release provides a distinct aesthetic and mechanical identity separate from standard set releases. The GK2 set code identifies this product line, which was designed to highlight the unique playstyles of Magic's guilds. Owning the Rakdos Guildmage allows enthusiasts to complete their guild-specific holdings and appreciate the intricate design work that defines the era. Whether you are building a thematic deck or focusing on set completion, this card represents a solid addition to any serious Magic: The Gathering collection.
