Gandalf the White

Description

Released in 2023, this Magic: The Gathering card features Gandalf the White from The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth expansion. Designated as card number 442, the mythic rare foil version is a distinct variant for collectors of the franchise and the trading card game. The card depicts the legendary wizard as an Avatar Wizard with a mana value of five, requiring a mana cost of {3}{W}{W} to cast. The card brings unique strategic value through its powerful abilities. It possesses flash, allowing players to cast it at instant speed, and grants similar flash to other legendary and artifact spells. A standout feature is its triggered ability: whenever a legendary permanent or an artifact entering or leaving the battlefield causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time. This effect amplifies the impact of legendary and artifact synergies within a deck. Created by artist Kieran Yanner, the card is a sought-after piece for those building Lord of the Rings-themed collections. The foil finish adds a premium aesthetic appeal, making it a desirable addition to any Magic: The Gathering binder. Whether you are collecting for the art, the lore, or the gameplay mechanics, this mythic rare card represents a high-tier component of the Tales of Middle-earth set. Collectors often seek out this card number to complete their sets or to utilize its powerful effects in Constructed formats. The combination of the iconic character, the mythic rarity, and the foil treatment makes this card a notable item for enthusiasts of both Tolkien’s universe and competitive trading card gaming.
