Akroan Horse

Description

The Akroan Horse (C16-241) is a distinctive Magic: The Gathering card released in 2019 as part of The List series. Created by artist Seb McKinnon, this card brings a unique mechanical identity to the collector's library. As an Artifact Creature — Horse, it possesses a mana value of four, requiring {4} to cast, and stands with a power and toughness of 0/4. Its defensive nature is defined by the defender keyword, ensuring it cannot attack but serves as a sturdy barrier on the battlefield. The gameplay mechanics of this product introduce a complex interaction between players. Upon entering the battlefield, the Akroan Horse changes allegiance, granting control of the creature to an opponent. This dynamic shift adds a layer of strategic unpredictability to any Magic: The Gathering game. Furthermore, at the beginning of the controller's upkeep, each opponent creates a 1/1 white Soldier creature token. This continuous token generation can overwhelm the board, making the Akroan Horse a pivotal piece for builders of The List collection. Collectors appreciate The List for its rotating selection of reprinted and alternate art cards, offering a diverse array of pieces not found in standard expansions. The Akroan Horse, with its specific card number C16-241 and rare rarity designation, represents a niche but engaging entry for enthusiasts of artifact creatures. Its unique rules text and thematic design make it a valuable addition for those looking to complete their Magic: The Gathering holdings or explore the strategic depth of The List variants. Whether for casual play or competitive deck construction, this card offers a memorable experience that highlights the creativity of the game's design.
