Efreet Flamepainter

Description

Efreet Flamepainter, numbered 98p, is a promotional release from the 2021 Strixhaven: School of Mages Promos set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by artist Marta Nael, this Rare card functions as a Creature — Efreet Shaman with a mana cost of {3}{R} and a power and toughness of 1/4. As a promo item, it carries the set code PSTX, distinguishing it from the standard base checklist while maintaining the visual identity of the Strixhaven era. The card’s design appeals to collectors of Magic: The Gathering promotional items and players interested in its specific gameplay mechanics. It features the keyword ability double strike, allowing it to deal combat damage twice in a single turn. Additionally, its secondary ability triggers when it deals combat damage to a player, permitting the caster to target an instant or sorcery card from their graveyard and cast it without paying its mana cost. If that spell would return to the graveyard, it is exiled instead. This interaction provides a distinct strategic layer focused on resource management and graveyard synergy. For those building a collection of Strixhaven: School of Mages products, Efreet Flamepainter represents a specific entry point into the promotional subset. The 2021 Strixhaven: School of Mages Promos release includes Efreet Flamepainter as card number 98p. The combination of its shaman subtype, efreet lineage, and specific rules text makes it a notable component for enthusiasts of the game’s lore and mechanics.
