Item Condition

Magic: The Gathering single: Forsaken Wastes, from Mirage. Our grade: Lightly Played or better. Pictured: this printing of the card. Every card ships triple-sleeved — a soft sleeve, a deck sleeve and a rigid top loader.

Item Description

Forsaken Wastes turns every game into a slow countdown. While it is on the battlefield, no player can gain life, and each player loses 1 life at the beginning of their own upkeep. Try to remove it with a targeted spell, and that spell's controller loses 5 life for the trouble. For three mana, it shuts off lifegain decks and puts the entire table on a clock that never stops ticking.

That makes it a nasty tool for black attrition and group-slug Commander decks, the kind that win by grinding opponents down rather than attacking. It slams the door on lifegain strategies and pillow-fort players hoping to wait out the game, and it pairs naturally with other incremental drain and discard effects that pressure every opponent at once. Just be ready to manage your own life total, since the Wastes treats you no better than anyone else.

Forsaken Wastes is a World Enchantment from Mirage, the 1996 set that took Magic to the continent of Jamuraa, and under an old-school rule only one World Enchantment can be on the battlefield at a time. This is the Mirage printing, collector number 125, a rare illustrated by Kev Walker, in non-foil. Its 1990s frame and Walker's art carry the cruel, inevitable flavor of early black magic.
