Sphinx of Forgotten Lore — Ready to Reclaim Spells
Sphinx of Forgotten Lore is a compact engine for spell recursion wrapped in mythic form. This Foundations extended art print is Near Mint and carries the practical utility you expect from a blue sphinx. With flash and flying the 3 3 body fits into reactive plays; it arrives on an opponent turn to protect your hand and then pressures while enabling cast from graveyard lines when it attacks.
In play the Sphinx converts board presence into tempo by granting flashback to a target instant or sorcery in your graveyard until end of turn. The flashback cost is the spell s mana cost which keeps interactions predictable and deck construction straightforward. For control decks and graveyard focused builds this card provides a repeatable window to reuse removal or countermagic and reads like a quiet piece of lore that rewards careful sequencing and timing.
