The Lord of Atlantis stands as a formidable Merfolk creature in the 2006 Magic: The Gathering Time Spiral expansion, specifically within the Timeshifted subset. As card number 24 in this collection, this foil special edition captures the essence of blue mana strategy through its efficient two-mana cost and impactful board presence. The card features artwork by Melissa A. Benson, bringing the underwater kingdom's leadership to life for collectors and players alike.

For collectors, the Timeshifted subset holds a unique place in Magic history, reprinting classic cards with updated frames and finishes.
