# Phyrexian Totem Phyrexian Totem represents a functional reprint of an earlier artifact creature, making it notable primarily for collectors tracking card genealogy across Magic's history. The Duel Decks release positioned it as an accessible version for players who wanted the effect without hunting older printings. Collectors generally view uncommon artifacts from supplemental sets as filling gaps in collections rather than commanding premium value. The nonfoil-only status means there's no variant hunting involved here, which simplifies acquisition. For those building comprehensive Phyrexian or artifact-focused collections, this version serves as a straightforward inclusion without the complexity or expense of chase variants.
