Kithkin Shielddare

Description

The 2008 Shadowmoor expansion reimagined the Magic: The Gathering world with a gothic, twilight aesthetic, introducing the color pair of White and Black. Within this set, the foil version of Kithkin Shielddare (card #10) stands out as a sought-after collectible for enthusiasts of the white mana identity. As a Common rarity card, it serves as a foundational piece for building mono-white decks, but its foil treatment makes it particularly appealing to those who appreciate the visual flair of extended play cards. Kithkin Shielddare is a Creature — Kithkin Soldier with a mana cost of {1}{W} and a power/toughness of 1/1. Its primary ability allows a player to tap the card and spend one white mana to give a target blocking creature +2/+2 until end of turn. This defensive utility makes the card a staple in aggressive white strategies, protecting key defenders during critical combat phases. The foil finish adds a layer of prestige, catching the light during gameplay and enhancing the card's presence in a collector's binder. For Magic: The Gathering historians, Shadowmoor represents a pivotal era in the game's design, exploring complex mechanics and narrative depth. Collecting foil commons from this set offers a cost-effective way to own a piece of this influential era. Whether you are completing a full set of Shadowmoor foils or hunting for specific Kithkin creatures, this card provides both nostalgic value and functional beauty. This product covers the standard foil print run, ensuring that every collector can find a version that fits their collection standards.
