See the Future with the Palantir!
Unleash the power of foresight with the Palantir of Orthanc, a legendary artifact that brings strategic depth to your Magic: The Gathering games. For just {3}, this artifact provides a unique opportunity to manipulate fate itself. At the beginning of your end step, you can choose to influence the game by placing an influence counter on the Palantir and scrying 2. Not only can you sculpt your next moves, but by forcing your opponent to draw a card, you can take control of their fate, too. If they don't want to risk it, they’ll be forced to mill cards equal to the influence counters you have—showing them that some visions can be perilous!
In a world where every card counts, the Palantir synergizes exceptionally well with cards that involve milling or card manipulation. Think of pairing it with Mind Funeral to capitalize on your opponent's deck while fueling your own strategy. As you navigate the treacherous waters of your game, use the Palantir to outmaneuver your opponents and dictate the flow of battle, ensuring that the odds are always in your favor.
