{"product_id":"stone-rain","title":"Stone Rain (Original Art)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStone Rain\u003c\/em\u003e is a three-mana red sorcery, first printed in \u003cem\u003eAlpha\u003c\/em\u003e (1993), that can destroy target land. It is one of the foundational cards of Magic, establishing red’s land destruction ability for decades. \u003cem\u003eStone Rain\u003c\/em\u003e was a defining card in early Type-2 Standard environments, where mana bases were slower and games typically lasted longer. In early Magic, mana denial was a primary win condition and was considered fair and interactive – players were expected to protect lands or accept disruption. It was played in common archetypes back then such as Ponza, Red Land Destruction and U\/r Magnivore. At the 1999 World Championship, finalist Mark Le Pine’s aggressive “Sped Red” deck applied early pressure with fast creatures like Mogg Fanatic, Jackal Pup, and Fireslinger – before shifting into land-destruction mode with \u003cem\u003eStone Rain\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003ePillage\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eAvalanche Riders\u003c\/em\u003e. A late game \u003cem\u003eCursed Scroll\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHammer of Bogardan\u003c\/em\u003e would finish off his mana-crippled opponents. In Modern, Stone Rain has seen play in various decks like R\/g Ponza, Boros Land Loss, and Eldrazi Ramp. Today, it still remains played in Old School 93\/94, Commander (EDH), and Premodern decks like Ponza and \u003cem\u003eOath of Druids\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cem\u003eStone Rain\u003c\/em\u003e has been reprinted many times and is not on the Reserved List.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"artwhirled","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44762009337901,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/8000\/6957\/files\/Stone_Rain_Original_Art_front_a_white.jpg?v=1775126429","url":"https:\/\/artwhirled.com\/products\/stone-rain","provider":"Art Whirled","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
