Midnight Clock

Description

The Midnight Clock (card number 54s) is a rare foil promo artifact card released in 2019 as part of the Magic: The Gathering Throne of Eldraine Promos set. Designed by Alexander Forssberg, this card costs {2}{U} mana and functions as a unique engine within the game. Its ability allows players to generate one blue mana by tapping it, or spend {2}{U} to place an hour counter on the artifact. At the start of each upkeep, an additional hour counter is added. Once the twelfth hour counter is placed, the player shuffles their hand and graveyard into their library and draws seven cards, after which the artifact is exiled. This card number places it firmly within the promotional subset of the Eldraine block, distinguishing it from the base set checklist. Collectors interested in the Throne of Eldraine era often track these promos for their distinctive mechanics and foil finish. The combination of the card's delayed payoff mechanic and its status as a rare foil print makes it a notable piece for Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts.
