About this card

Lion's Eye Diamond is a Reserved List artifact from Mirage that enables powerful combo strategies in Legacy and Vintage formats. Initially dismissed as unplayable upon release, it became recognized as one of Magic's most powerful fast mana sources, enabling turn-one wins in storm decks. Its Reserved List status guarantees no reprints, making it a cornerstone investment card.

The Card Official's ruling

Strong buy for long-term hold. Reserved List protection combined with competitive Legacy and Vintage play ensures continued demand growth. The card has shown consistent appreciation and is essential for multiple top-tier decks, making supply increasingly scarce.
