Hill Giant Foil (196/350) from Seventh Edition is a common red creature card with a mana cost of {3}{R}, featuring 3 power and 3 toughness. As a Creature — Giant, it offers straightforward battlefield presence without special abilities, making it a baseline threat in aggressive red decks. First released in April 2001, this version in Seventh Edition reprinted the classic design with new artwork by Dany Orizio and was part of the first core set to include foil cards, which were printed with black borders.
The foil edition enhances the dramatic artwork depicting a towering, club-wielding giant in a rugged landscape, emphasizing brute strength. The card’s flavor text — "Hill giants are mostly just big. Of course, that does count for a lot." — humorously highlights its role as a simple yet effective combatant. While not competitive in modern formats, it remains popular in casual play, beginner decks, and collections due to its nostalgic value and visual appeal.
The foil version commands a higher value than its nonfoil counterpart, partly due to its status as one of the earliest mass-produced foils in Magic history. It is legal in Commander, Legacy, and Vintage formats. Its inclusion in Seventh Edition made it widely accessible, and it continues to be sought after by collectors and fans of early Magic’s card design era.
