Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2010 as part of the Scars of Mirrodin expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, the Tumble Magnet serves as a tactical artifact designed to disrupt opponent board states. The set itself was highly anticipated by players as a return to the metal-dominated plane of Mirrodin, focusing heavily on the conflict between the native inhabitants and the metallic infectious threat of the Phyrexians.

The card features artwork by Efrem Palacios, who illustrated the item as a sleek, modular device consistent with the set's technological aesthetic. Mechanically, it was received as a versatile utility card in limited formats, allowing players to tap down troublesome permanents by expending charge counters, reflecting the set's thematic preoccupation with resource management and industrial warfare.
