Description
The 1999 Magic: The Gathering card Ticking Gnomes (#136) from the Urza's Legacy expansion, featuring an Uncommon foil finish and unique echo mechanics. This Magic: The Gathering trading card game card was released in 1999 as part of the Urza's Legacy set, identified by the ULG set code. The card features an Uncommon rarity and a foil finish, designated as card number 136 in the series. Illustrated by Henry Van Der Linde, the piece depicts an Artifact Creature — Gnome with a mana cost of {3} and a mana value of 3. It possesses a power and toughness of 3/3. The card's gameplay revolves around its Echo ability, which requires the player to pay an echo cost of {3} during their upkeep or sacrifice the creature. This mechanic adds a strategic layer, as the Gnome must be continually supported or replaced. Additionally, the card allows the player to sacrifice it to deal 1 damage to any target, providing a versatile removal option. This design makes Ticking Gnomes a notable piece for collectors interested in the Urza's Legacy set and Magic: The Gathering's artifact creature line. The foil treatment enhances its visual appeal, making it a desirable addition to any Magic: The Gathering collection. Whether for completing a set or appreciating the card's unique mechanics, this card represents a significant part of the 1999 release.
