Magic: The Gathering single: Grindstone, from Tempest. 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
On its own, Grindstone is a slow mill engine: one mana to cast, then three mana and a tap to make a player mill two cards, repeating the process as long as the two cards milled share a color. In a typical deck that means a few cards at a time. Make every card share a color, though, and Grindstone mills an entire library in a single activation.
That is exactly what Painter's Servant does. Name a color with the Servant on the battlefield and every card everywhere becomes that color, so the two milled cards always match and the loop never stops until the target's library is empty. The Painter-Grindstone pairing became one of the best-known two-card combos in Magic's older formats, and it is still a satisfying way to win in Commander and cube: two cheap artifacts, one activation, and your opponent has no cards left to draw.
Grindstone comes from Tempest, the 1997 set that took Magic to the dark plane of Rath, and Crovax's flavor text fits the card's slow erosion: “Memory is a burden that wears at the soul as weather wears at stone.” This is the original Tempest printing, collector number 290, illustrated by Greg Simanson, in non-foil.
