Reference Card
Two mana is a lot to hold up, and given that most wins in cEDH often present themselves from situations where a player bursts ahead rather explosively, odds are that any time a player is going to win youll either wish for a narrower, but more efficient, one-mana counterspell (Miscast, Dispel, etc.), or just a plain old Silence
Youll then manage your gains at a camp base where youll get the chance to evolve and upgrade your creatures
The rest of the set also has a few coveted cards, with Mew VMax being a meta threat in its prime and Espeon VMax having some of the most beautiful Eeveelution art ever printed
However, its the real deal: this one was part of a small print run of just four prototype cards , printed by Wizards of the Coast back in 1998
Its combination of extreme scarcity, beautiful alternate-color artwork, historical significance as a representative of the beloved Gold Star era, and association with one of the most popular Pokemon in the franchise makes it a cornerstone card for any collection that aspires to comprehensiveness
