Stronghold Gambit

Sorcery

Each player chooses a card in their hand. Then each player reveals their chosen card. The owner of each creature card revealed this way with the lowest mana value puts it onto the battlefield.

Printings & Editions

Premodern-legal editions of Stronghold Gambit — old-border printings plus any period-appropriate foil promos (Arena/Judge, through Scourge). Hover to preview an edition on the card; click to select it.

Old-border editions + pre-Scourge promo foils (Arena/Judge). Modern-frame reprints (8th Edition onward) exist but are not period-appropriate printings.

Critical Rulings

"You don’t have to choose a creature card, but choosing a non creature does nothing except maybe bluff your opponent."

— 2004-10-04

"Creature cards which are revealed but are not the lowest cost, or any non-creature cards revealed remain in their owners’ hands and stop being revealed."
