Cheap Ass

Description

As card number 5 in the set, this Common foil creature brings a lighthearted mechanical twist that appeals to both casual players and completionist collectors. The card features artwork by Randy Gallegos, who captured the whimsical tone that defines the Unhinged series. Mechanically, Cheap Ass is a Donkey Townsfolk with a mana cost of {1}{W} and a power and toughness of 1/3.5. Its primary ability allows you to reduce the casting cost of all your spells by {½}, offering a unique strategic advantage that differs significantly from standard Magic: The Gathering mechanics. This half-mana reduction can be particularly impactful in decks that rely on casting multiple spells in a single turn, making it a functional piece of the game despite its humorous flavor text. The flavor text, "And you thought Yawgmoth drove a hard bargain," further emphasizes the set's satirical approach to the game's lore. Collectors often seek out foil versions of Unhinged cards due to their visual appeal and the nostalgic value of the 2004 release. The foil treatment adds a shimmering quality that enhances the card's presentation, making it a desirable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection. Whether you are building a themed deck or simply appreciating the artistry of the Unhinged set, Cheap Ass offers a blend of utility and charm.
