Description

The Arixmethes, Slumbering Isle foil card from the Magic: The Gathering 2018 Treasure Chest set offers a unique dual-role experience for collectors and players. Printed with a rare foil treatment, this legendary creature brings a distinct aesthetic and mechanical depth to the game. The card features art by Dimitar Marinski, capturing the essence of this massive aquatic entity. Arixmethes is a 12/12 Legendary Creature — Kraken that costs four mana to cast.

Once the slumber counters are removed, it transforms back into a powerful creature that can attack and block. The card’s design emphasizes its dual nature, making it a standout piece in any Magic: The Gathering collection. This card’s card number, 70715, identifies it within the set’s catalog.

Whether you are building a deck around land creature synergies or simply adding a visually impressive card to your binder, Arixmethes offers both functional and aesthetic value. The Treasure Chest series continues to be popular among Magic enthusiasts for its curated selection of rare cards. This release provides a memorable addition to any collection, bridging the gap between gameplay utility and collector appeal.
