# Mesmerizing Benthid Mesmerizing Benthid represents a particular kind of mythic rare that appeals to casual and limited players more than competitive ones. The card's enchantment-creature hybrid nature and token-generating ability made it a solid limited bomb during Ravnica Allegiance draft, which is how most collectors remember it. Its constructed play was minimal, so it never developed the secondary market appeal of format staples. Collectors typically view this card as a solid example of its set's design philosophy rather than a chase piece. The foil version holds modest appeal for those completing foil sets or building themed decks around blue-green strategies. Neither variant commands significant collector interest today, making it an accessible mythic for set completion purposes.
