Rock Star

Description

Released in 2022 as part of the Unfinity set, Rock Star is a five-mana Common card designated as card number 122. This Magic: The Gathering trading card card serves as a Creature — Elemental Performer with a mana value of five, requiring four generic mana and one red mana to cast. The card features a foil finish, adding visual distinction to its presentation within the set's diverse roster of humorous and mechanically complex cards. Designed by artist Dave Allsop, the card introduces a unique gameplay interaction that breaks the fourth wall, allowing the player to involve someone outside the game in the decision-making process. When this creature enters the battlefield, the controller may discard a card to reveal the top five cards of their library. They then ask a person outside the game to choose which of those cards most resembles a rock band, putting that chosen card into their hand while placing the rest on the bottom of the library in a random order. This mechanic makes Rock Star a memorable piece for collectors who appreciate the unconventional design philosophy of the Unfinity line. The card's flavor text, "Born to, and of, rock," underscores its thematic connection to music and performance. For collectors of Magic: The Gathering, this release represents a fun and interactive element of the set, appealing to those who enjoy the creative liberties taken in unofficial expansions.
