About this card
Mana cost: {4}
Type: Artifact Creature — Golem
At the beginning of your end step, this creature phases out. (While it's phased out, it's treated as though it doesn't exist. It phases in before you untap during your next untap step.)
""Once, a wealthy king commissioned an artificial creature to be crafted from the royal treasury, thinking it a clever ploy to have the jewels guard themselves." —Azeworai, "The Golem's Wish""

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Crystal Golem is real?
Crystal Golem is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the print quality and cardstock (real cards have a distinctive blue inner core visible from the edge), the rosette pattern on the back, the security stamp on planeswalker / mythic cards from recent sets, and confirm the collector number and set code match the official Scryfall record. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
