Karn's Bastion: Slow-Building Proliferation
Karn's Bastion (Retro Frame) is a compact engine for any deck that wants to grow counters methodically. The land taps for a single colorless mana to keep early turns smooth and then converts spare resources into incremental advantage with its four mana proliferate ability. In play this card rewards patience. It shifts games from board parity toward exponential value when paired with artifacts, planeswalkers, or any permanent that benefits from counters.
The Retro Frame treatment and foil finish give this Near Mint copy a classic presence on the table while the rules remain straightforward and reliable. Karn's Bastion fits into artifact and colorless land strategies but also slides into Commander lists where slow but steady token growth or loyalty ramp matters. Use it to turn a single counter into a game plan and keep tempo in your favor over the mid and late game.
