With 180 HP and no Moves that require you to discard Energy when you use them, this card feels like a sleeping giant
Tokens, big beasts, and dragons, Naya has it all, so naturally the cards represent an equally large swath of styles and strategies usually tied to creatures and creature combat, which makes for a lot of very usable spells for Naya's Commanders
This special print only has an Italian print
Prior to this year, the only way to guarantee getting a foil card prior to this year was to buy one of the boxed sets that specifically had foil cards included as promos, which is certainly a valid option but lacks the cool factor of opening a booster pack and getting a really cool card at random
Both cards are Black Star Promo which was a series of special promotional cards that were released from July 1999 through March 2003, 53 total cards were released and these are number 12 (NM/Mint 8) and 14 (Mint 9)
Its powerful enough to send me looking for other Pest-generating Witherbloom cards from the main set, without necessarily needing any of them to be worthwhile on its own.The fact that Pests can be killed on cue for one life makes them perhaps the most optimal way to manage the other effects in the deck, so even if you turn your nose up at the idea of creature combat, theres plenty here to love
