Platinum Angel

Description

The Platinum Angel stands as one of the most formidable artifacts in Magic: The Gathering history, originally designed by Brom. Released in 2022 as part of The Brothers' War Retro Artifacts set, this iteration (card number 41) captures the essence of the original while offering a premium foil finish. As an Artifact Creature — Angel, it demands a mana cost of seven, reflecting its immense power on the battlefield. Its abilities allow it to prevent its controller from losing the game and simultaneously block opponents from winning, making it a game-ending threat that can instantly shift the momentum of any match. Collectors value this card not only for its gameplay dominance but also for its status as a Mythic Rare within the Retro Artifacts subset. The Brothers' War expansion paid homage to the game's earliest days, and this foil version brings that nostalgic appeal with a modern, shiny aesthetic. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your library of iconic Magic cards, the Platinum Angel remains a top-tier choice. Its enduring popularity across formats ensures it remains a sought-after piece for any serious collector. The combination of Brom’s original design, the high-rarity treatment, and the powerful rules text makes this card a cornerstone of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
