# Merciless Harlequin Merciless Harlequin represents the Assassin's Creed crossover set's attempt to capture flavor through mechanical design. As a common, it occupies the typical role of an efficient creature with conditional utility rather than a format-defining effect. Collectors view this card primarily through the lens of the crossover's cultural significance—it's part of a limited, thematic release that appeals to fans of both Magic and the video game franchise. The nonfoil-only status limits variant collecting opportunities, making condition and centering the main variables worth tracking. For most collectors, Merciless Harlequin holds value as a set completion piece rather than a standalone investment, relevant mainly to those building complete Assassin's Creed collections.
