Midnight Clock: Time Engine for Commander
Midnight Clock is a blue artifact engine designed for Commander play. The design leans into time as a resource, with hour counters advancing each upkeep and a mana option to accelerate the plan. The card taps to produce blue mana and pays {2}{U} to add an hour counter, building toward a decisive reset. When the twelfth hour counter lands, you shuffle your hand and graveyard into your library and draw seven cards, then exile the clock. The artwork presents a towered machine shrouded in night, a fitting symbol for a device that turns time into card advantage. This copy comes in Near Mint condition, ready to slot into a blue control or combo deck.
In practice, Midnight Clock fits into control and ramp shells that can weather the late game and leverage a ritualized reset. It offers a reliable engine that refills your hand while pruning away obsolete resources, all while preserving the feel of a timeless arc in your games. Lore speaks of a city where time itself is bottled in a ticking relic; in play, the Clock delivers that same measured cadence, turning increments of time into seven fresh cards when the moment is right.
