Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage

Description

Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage represents one of the most compelling character designs from the 2019 War of the Spark expansion in Magic: The Gathering. As a Legendary Planeswalker card numbered 83★ in the set, this foil printing by artist Hagiya Kaoru captures the essence of a dark, strategic mage central to the event's narrative. The card’s distinctive star foil treatment adds a premium visual appeal that collectors actively seek when building their War of the Spark holdings. From a gameplay perspective, this card commands attention with its unique mechanics.
