Treasure is an artifact type introduced in the Ixalan block.[1] It appears exclusively on tokens.[2][3][4]
Description
Like Gold tokens previously, these Treasure artifact tokens have the ability to be sacrificed for mana.[5] Unlike Gold, these artifact tokens must also be tapped.[6] Red and Green have more access to treasures than other colors.[7]
History
Gold tokens had been considered for the Ixalan block but proved problematic with the improvise mechanic from Aether Revolt in the Standard environment, so R&D had to add a tap and change the token’s name.[8][9]
There are four versions of the printed Treasure token in the Ixalan block, each with art of a chest that contains valuables from one of the four factions.[10]
Treasure tokens reappeared in Ravnica Allegiance (Smothering Tithe), and are now considered deciduous.[11][12]
With the release of Core Set 2020 the Treasure became a predefined Token.[13] As a consequence, the description of what a treasure token does now appears in the reminder text, instead of in the rules text.[14] Older treasure token cards are errataed.[15]
Trivia
- Revel in Riches is an alternate-win card making use of Treasure tokens: at the beginning of your upkeep, if you control ten or more Treasures, you win the game.
- To celebrate the 2018 Chinese New Year League, Wizards of the Coast in Taiwan released special foil treasure tokens depicting the Chinese Myth of the Money Tree.[16]
