Retro Magic: Singing Tree - Arabian Nights Card Review

by Phoenix A. Desertsong, Staff Writer, Healer & Advocate

 Singing Tree may not be the most powerful card in the world, but what it does is interesting. While a 0/3 creature for 4 mana (3 Colorless & 1 Green) seems underpowered, being able to reduce an attacking creature's power to zero just by tapping certainly isn't bad.  While it's hardly as good as many of its Reserve List counterparts, it's mainly there for collectors' value purposes. Otherwise, this would've been a candidate to reprint in a Core Set.

Honestly, Singing Tree is an interesting stall card. Though it is only an uncommon, copies of this card can still sell for over $50 on the open market, mostly just because it is from such an old set and supply is so limited. Those copies in decent condition can even fetch triple digits!

 In Old School Magic, this card is certainly a lot better than it is in modern Magic. Even then, it's fairly under-powered for competitive play. It's a fun little card, though, and the artwork is beautiful! Whatever playability it may or may not have, Singing Tree is definitely a beautiful Old School Magic card!

Have you ever played Singing Tree?
