More About Our Magic: the Gathering Proxies

Rhystic Study is highly regarded in Magic: The Gathering due to its popularity and impact on the game. Many players appreciate its artwork and the dynamic it adds to Commander gameplay. Rhystic Study, along with cards like Esper Sentinel, and Mystic Remora, has become a staple in the format.

What makes Rhystic Study so good is the Rhystic mechanic. This mechanic makes the game interactive. You get to decide if you want to pay an extra mana when you cast spells. When you control Rhystic Study you get to benefit from your opponents decisions. If they don’t pay the extra mana you get to draw a card. Potentially multiple cards in a turn cycle. This makes their turns exciting because every spell they cast is an opportunity for you to gain card advantage. For them it’s a tough decision to make.

Processing is typically 1–3 business days (peak times vary). See Shipping & Turnaround: https://proxyking.biz/shipping-policy/. We ship from the United States.

Rhystic Study – MTG Jumpstart

Rhystic Study is a rare enchantment card from Magic: The Gathering's Jumpstart set. For a casting cost of {2}{U}, it has the following ability: "Whenever an opponent casts a spell, you may draw a card unless that player pays {1}." This card is renowned for its ability to generate significant card advantage by taxing opponents' spells, making it a staple in many Commander decks.

Tip:

To maximize the effectiveness of Rhystic Study, maintain a vigilant awareness of opponents' mana resources. In multiplayer formats, the cumulative effect of taxing each spell can overwhelm opponents, leading to substantial card draw over time. Politically, Rhystic Study can pressure opponents into suboptimal plays to avoid granting you additional cards, subtly influencing the game's progression.

Cards that Synergize with Rhystic Study:

Smothering Tithe

An enchantment that taxes opponents' card draws, generating Treasure tokens for you unless they pay {2}. Together with Rhystic Study, it creates a taxing environment that can stifle opponents' resources while accelerating your own.

Consecrated Sphinx

A creature that allows you to draw two cards whenever an opponent draws a card. Paired with Rhystic Study, it amplifies your card advantage, making it difficult for opponents to keep up.

Notion Thief

A creature that redirects opponents' card draws to you. In combination with Rhystic Study, it ensures that any cards opponents would draw, either by paying the tax or through other means, benefit you instead.

Windfall

A sorcery that forces all players to discard their hands and draw cards equal to the greatest number discarded. When used alongside Rhystic Study, it can refill your hand while potentially taxing opponents' subsequent spells.
