Why it matters
Protomatter Powder, illustrated by Francis Tsai, appeared in the 2008 Magic: The Gathering set Shards of Alara as an uncommon artifact. It is notable for its unique "return to hand" ability, which allows players to sacrifice the permanent to recover a card from their graveyard, a mechanic often valued in niche utility strategies.
