Goblin Masons

Description

Goblin Masons is a two-mana Creature — Goblin card from the Urza's Destiny expansion, released in 1999 for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. As card number 86 in the set, this Common rarity piece is a staple for collectors building complete Urza's Destiny collections. The card features artwork by DiTerlizzi, whose distinctive style helped define the visual identity of the Urza block. In gameplay, Goblin Masons costs one red mana and one generic mana to cast, resulting in a mana value of two. With a power and toughness of 2/1, it serves as a flexible early-game option. Its defining trait is a triggered ability: when this creature dies, it destroys target Wall. This effect makes the card particularly relevant in decks facing Wall-heavy strategies, offering a specific removal tool that doesn't require targeting the Wall directly. The flavor text captures the chaotic nature of the Goblin race, noting their zeal for building—and destroying—anything within reach. Collectors value Urza's Destiny for its cohesive block design and the iconic planeswalker Urza. Goblin Masons represents the diverse creature types available in the set, appealing to those who enjoy completing sets by creature subtype or focusing on the Urza legacy. Whether you are assembling a full set of Urza's Destiny cards or hunting for specific creature interactions, this card offers a unique mechanical niche. The combination of low casting cost and targeted removal makes it a memorable part of Magic history.
