Description
The Greater Basilisk (IMA-165) is a green Common creature card from Magic: The Gathering’s 2019 The List set, designed by artist James Ryman. As a Basilisk with a mana cost of three generic and two green mana, this card brings a five-mana threat to the battlefield with a solid 3/5 power and toughness. Its most defining game mechanic is Deathtouch, meaning any damage it deals to a creature is sufficient to destroy it, making it a formidable blocker and attacker in limited formats. The flavor text, "Bone, stone... Both taste the same to a hungry basilisk," adds narrative depth to the creature’s predatory nature. For collectors, this card represents a staple of the The List subset, which offers a rotating selection of cards from various Magic sets. The List cards are popular for their unique border design and the chance to acquire staples outside of standard expansions. Whether you are building a collection focused on green creatures or seeking specific cards from the 2019 era, the Greater Basilisk stands out as a key component for Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts.
