Illustrious Wanderglyph (Commander: The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play Foil

Ascend with the Wanderglyph

Illustrious Wanderglyph rewards board development in a straightforward way. For five mana including one white you cast a 2 2 artifact creature that can earn the citys blessing and then turn every other artifact creature you control into a relevant threat with a flat +2 boost. The card also engines value each turn by producing a 1 1 colorless Gnome artifact token at the beginning of each upkeep which pairs well with sacrifice loops and artifact synergies.

This printing fits a commander style that prizes incremental advantages and resilient boards. Play it when you are assembling a critical mass of permanents and you will convert a handful of pieces into a larger army. The foil surface shows the sculpted golem and its tiny gnome helper clearly, useful when you want art that reads at the table without calling attention away from lines of play.
