Description
Card #159 from the Unfinity set, released in 2022, is the Mythic Rare sorcery known as Tug of War. This Magic: The Gathering card is distinguished by its unique mechanical design, which departs from standard spell interactions by initiating a secondary game state. Players engage in a subgame starting at five life, utilizing up to three permanent cards drawn from their main library. The strategic depth comes from the resolution: upon the subgame's conclusion, the winner selects one of the permanents used and places it directly onto the battlefield instead of returning it to their library. This mechanic makes it a compelling choice for collectors interested in unconventional game design within the Unfinity era. As a Mythic Rare, this card holds a significant position in the Unfinity set hierarchy, often sought after by builders looking for high-impact spells with narrative flair. The artwork is created by artist Gaboleps, adding to the card's visual appeal among Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts. Collectors frequently target this release to complete their Unfinity set or to acquire a functional piece of the Un-sets lineage that offers distinct gameplay possibilities. The card's mana cost of {4}{G} and its five mana value reflect its power level, making it a notable addition to any collection focused on the 2022 Unfinity expansion. Whether you are a veteran player or a new collector, understanding the mechanics of cards like Tug of War enhances the appreciation of the Unfinity set's creative direction.

Players play a subgame starting at 5 life and with up to three permanent cards with different names from their main-game library on the battlefield. As the subgame ends, the winner chooses one of the cards they put onto the battlefield as the subgame began and puts it onto the battlefield rather than shuffling it into their library.
