Description
Obscura Ascendancy is a distinctive enchantment card from the 2022 Streets of New Capenna expansion in Magic: The Gathering. As card number 207 in the set, this Rare foil variant offers collectors a visually striking addition to their collection, enhanced by the shimmering foil treatment that complements its multicolored mana cost. Mechanically, Obscura Ascendancy provides a dynamic gameplay experience, rewarding players for casting spells of specific mana values. Each time a qualifying spell is cast, the enchantment accumulates soul counters, eventually generating powerful 2/2 white Spirit creature tokens with flying. Once five soul counters are on the card, the Spirits you control receive a significant +3/+3 buff, turning the enchantment into a potent engine for board control. This unique interaction makes it a favorite among players who enjoy strategic, cumulative effects. For collectors, the Streets of New Capenna set represents a high point in Magic's modern design history, and Obscura Ascendancy stands out as a notable Rare. The foil finish adds an extra layer of appeal, making it a desirable piece for those building themed collections or seeking high-quality examples of this iconic enchantment. Whether you are a seasoned Magic player or a new collector, this card offers both aesthetic beauty and strategic depth.
