Card number 310 in the set, this rare Efreet Shaman combines aggressive combat capabilities with strategic resource management, making it a compelling addition for collectors who appreciate intricate gameplay mechanics. The foil treatment adds a shimmering finish that highlights its status as a sought-after piece within the STX set.

Designed by Marta Nael, the card captures the magical essence of the Strixhaven universe.
