Legality & Play Notes

Legality: unknown
Trash Exchange is not legal in Standard, Expanded, or Unlimited formats. Its effect recycles your discard pile back into your deck, then mills the same number of cards from the top of your deck—useful for deck-cycling strategies that care about discard composition.

Care & Storage Tips

As a common card with distinctive artwork, preservation still matters. Store it in a sleeve or toploader, and keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain both visual appeal and structural integrity.
