Description
Ward of Bones is a distinct Artifact card from the 2026 Magic: The Gathering The Zeta Set, identified by card number 238 in the SLZ subset. This six-mana card serves as a strategic tool for players seeking to disrupt opponent resources. The card’s effect creates a defensive barrier that restricts opponents based on their board state. Specifically, if an opponent controls more creatures, artifacts, or enchantments than you, they are prevented from casting creature spells. Additionally, if they control more lands, they cannot play them. This mechanic allows players to level the playing field by targeting resource-heavy strategies. Art for this release is provided by MSCHF, adding a unique visual identity to the card within the set. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game cards often seek out specific artifacts that offer versatile gameplay options. The Zeta Set continues the legacy of innovative card designs, and Ward of Bones stands out for its conditional control abilities.
