Lore

Why it matters

This rare card reimagines a classic effect by tethering a powerful board-resetting ability to a creature rather than a spell. Because it forces all players to equalize their resources, it serves as a high-stakes tactical tool that requires careful timing to shift the momentum of a game in your favor.
