Millstone (collectible card)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Millstone (collectible card) is a collectible trading card from the Magic: The Gathering (MTG) TCG set, a collectible card game by Wizards of the Coast (WotC).

Millstone first appeared in the Antiquities release set, soon after MTG's rising popularity in 1994.

It is a unique card because it was created

"to take advantage of the rule that stated that players lost the game when they ran out of cards in their deck. Millstone became a staple of deckbuilding for years, and even today, any effect that puts cards from one's library to their graveyard is known as "milling"."
