Gandalf the White is a powerful legendary creature card with a casting cost of {3}{W}{W}. It represents the transformation of Gandalf into the White Wizard, a significant event in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth lore.

This card possesses several remarkable abilities:

1. Flash: This allows you to cast Gandalf the White at instant speed, which can be strategically advantageous.

2. Flash for Legendary and Artifact Spells: You may cast legendary spells and artifact spells as though they had flash. This unique ability lets you surprise your opponents by deploying legendary and artifact cards without the usual restrictions on timing. It's as if they had instant speed themselves.

3. Triggered Ability Doubling: If a legendary permanent or an artifact entering or leaving the battlefield causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time. This ability amplifies the impact of triggered abilities tied to legendary permanents or artifacts, potentially creating powerful and synergistic effects on your side of the battlefield.

The artwork by Kieran Yanner captures the essence of Gandalf's transformation into the White, a symbol of renewed strength, wisdom, and his pivotal role in the events of Middle-earth.
