 |
FlashfreezeInstantCounter target red or green spell. "Is cold merely the absence of heat, or a force unto itself? Would a display of its power help you decide?" |
|
||||||
 |
Mana LeakInstantCounter target spell unless its controller pays The fatal flaw in every plan is the assumption that you know more than your enemy. |

|
||||||

|
|
||||||
 |
Ray of RevelationInstantDestroy target enchantment. "May angels carry him into the Blessed Sleep with dreams of sunlit days and moonless nights." |

Skillful LungeInstantTarget creature gets +2/+0 and gains first strike until end of turn. "Valor is a currency of the living that serves us well." |
|
||||||
 |
Burning OilInstantBurning Oil deals 3 damage to target attacking or blocking creature. Every now and then, a devil's prank can give you a good idea. |
|
||||||
 |
Increasing VengeanceInstantCopy target instant or sorcery spell you control. If Increasing Vengeance was cast from a graveyard, copy that spell twice instead. You may choose new targets for the copies.
|
|
||||||
 |
Feeling of DreadInstantTap up to two target creatures. People only say "I'm sure it was nothing" when they're sure it was something. |
|
||||||
 |
Moment of HeroismInstantTarget creature gets +2/+2 and gains lifelink until end of turn. (Damage dealt by the creature also causes its controller to gain that much life.) "My faith is stronger than fang, claw, or mindless hunger." |

 |
Memory's JourneyInstantTarget player shuffles up to three target cards from his or her graveyard into his or her library.
|

||||||
 |
Think TwiceInstantDraw a card. "Either I know just the spell I need, or I'm about to." |

|
||||||
 |
Victim of NightInstantDestroy target non-Vampire, non-Werewolf, non-Zombie creature. "Do not touch a drop. Not yet. I want to watch this so-called slayer's last crisis of faith." |
|
||||||
 |
Ancient GrudgeInstantDestroy target artifact. If there's anything a werewolf hates, it's a collar-especially Avacyn's Collar, the symbol of her church. |
|
||||||
 |
Desperate RavingsInstantDraw two cards, then discard a card at random. Her mind was quite gone, yet she spoke nothing but truth. |
|
||||||

Harvest PyreInstantAs an additional cost to cast Harvest Pyre, exile X cards from your graveyard. Corpses destroyed by fire form the most destructive geists. |
|
||||||
 |

|
||||||
 |
MoonmistInstantTransform all Humans. Prevent all combat damage that would be dealt this turn by creatures other than Werewolves and Wolves. (Only double-faced cards can be transformed.)

|
||||||

|
||||||
 |
Druid's DeliveranceInstantPrevent all combat damage that would be dealt to you this turn. Populate. (Put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of a creature token you control.) "So many oppose us, but we are the reed that bends without breaking." |
|
||||||
 |
Savage SurgeInstantTarget creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn. Untap that creature. Gruul warriors never need to be stirred to battle. They need only to be shown where the battle is. |
|
||||||
 |
Abrupt DecayInstantAbrupt Decay can't be countered by spells or abilities. The Izzet quickly suspended their policy of lifetime guarantees. |
|
||||||
 |
Azorius CharmInstantChoose one - Creatures you control gain lifelink until end of turn; or draw a card; or put target attacking or blocking creature on top of its owner's library. "The rules of logic and order have already made the choice for you." |

Chemister's TrickInstantTarget creature you don't control gets -2/-0 until end of turn and attacks this turn if able.
|
|
||||||

|
||||||

|
||||||
 |
Grisly SalvageInstantReveal the top five cards of your library. You may put a creature or land card from among them into your hand. Put the rest into your graveyard. To the Golgari, anything buried is treasure. |
|
||||||
 |
Heroes' ReunionInstantTarget player gains 7 life. They share no bloodline, but a bond greater than family unites them. Such are the gifts of the Worldsoul. |
|
||||||
 |
Izzet CharmInstantChoose one - Counter target noncreature spell unless its controller pays
|
|
||||||
 |
Rakdos CharmInstantChoose one - Exile all cards from target player's graveyard; or destroy target artifact; or each creature deals 1 damage to its controller. "Let all feel joy in pain." |

|
|
||||||
 |
Perilous ResearchInstantDraw two cards, then sacrifice a permanent. When the School of the Unseen fell, so many magical treasures lay abandoned that no amount of death could deter the stream of thieves and desperate scholars. |
|
||||||
 |
AngelsongInstantPrevent all combat damage that would be dealt this turn. Clash of sword and cry of beast fall mute when angels sound the call to prayer. |
|
||||||
 |
Soul's GraceInstantYou gain life equal to target creature's power. An avatar he sculpts of fellowship and light. |
|
||||||
 |
Call to HeelInstantReturn target creature to its owner's hand. Its controller draws a card. On Bant, a sigil is both a prize of honor and a bond of duty. The one who bears it may be called to fulfill that charge at any moment. |
|
||||||
 |
Resounding RoarInstantTarget creature gets +3/+3 until end of turn.
|
|
||||||
 |
Agony WarpInstantTarget creature gets -3/-0 until end of turn. Life's circle has become inverted in Grixis. The same energy is endlessly recycled and becomes more stagnant with each pass. |
|
||||||
 |
Hindering LightInstantCounter target spell that targets you or a permanent you control. Centuries of careful practice have elevated the casting of protective spells to an art form. What little offensive magic remains on Bant stands little chance of breaching them. |
|
||||||
 |
Sigil BlessingInstantUntil end of turn, target creature you control gets +3/+3 and other creatures you control get +1/+1. "For unwavering commitment and unflinching strength, the Order of the White Orchid confers its sigil. Rise, knight-captain, and do your duty." |
|
||||||
 |

|
||||||
 |
Apostle's BlessingInstant(
|
|
||||||
 |
Due RespectInstantPermanents enter the battlefield tapped this turn. "A display of humility is required of those who still possess such frailties." |
|
||||||
 |
Corrupted ResolveInstantCounter target spell if its controller is poisoned. "Flesh is a sickness that infects Phyrexia." |
|
||||||
 |
Psychic BarrierInstantCounter target creature spell. Its controller loses 1 life. "I tolerate Phyrexians because the dragon requires it. But I have no patience for uninvited guests." |
|
||||||
 |
Geth's VerdictInstantTarget player sacrifices a creature and loses 1 life. "Everyone should owe you something." |
|
||||||
 |
Glissa's ScornInstantDestroy target artifact. Its controller loses 1 life. "If it were fit to survive, it wouldn't have been so easily put down." |
|
||||||
 |
Leeching BiteInstantTarget creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn. Another target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn. A substantial portion of Vorinclex's forces became fuel for the rest. |
|
||||||
 |
Divine OfferingInstantDestroy target artifact. You gain life equal to its converted mana cost. "The Phyrexians are vulnerable. Do not despair. We will prevail!" |
|
||||||
 |
Turn the TideInstantCreatures your opponents control get -2/-0 until end of turn. "Let their mindless armies come and face the might of genius." |
|
||||||
 |
Go for the ThroatInstantDestroy target nonartifact creature. Having flesh is increasingly a liability on Mirrodin. |
|
||||||
 |
Burn the ImpureInstantBurn the Impure deals 3 damage to target creature. If that creature has infect, Burn the Impure deals 3 damage to that creature's controller. Flame doesn't kneel to Phyrexia. |
|
||||||
 |
Soul ParryInstantPrevent all damage one or two target creatures would deal this turn. "I was called to this world of steel, and it will be my steel that answers." |
|
||||||
 |
Whitesun's PassageInstantYou gain 5 life. All over the Razor Fields, Whitesun is celebrated. Even the followers of the rebel Juryan, far from the Cave of Light, bow their heads in reverence. |
|
||||||
 |
DisperseInstantReturn target nonland permanent to its owner's hand. Most casualties of the power struggle between vedalken and Neurok didn't die on the field of battle; they merely disappeared. |
|
||||||
 |
Grasp of DarknessInstantTarget creature gets -4/-4 until end of turn. On a world with five suns, night is compelled to become an aggressive force. |
|
||||||
 |
ShatterInstantDestroy target artifact. "I am an artist, a builder, a creator . . . I create the biggest explosions around." |
|||||||
 |
Tel-Jilad DefianceInstantTarget creature gains protection from artifacts until end of turn. The Viridian elves had purged their culture of the trolls' traitorous influence. In times of strife, however, the ancestral memories returned. |
|
||||||
 |
Puncturing LightInstantDestroy target attacking or blocking creature with power 3 or less. "The vampires knew what was coming. I know it. And they did nothing. They deserve to feel the same agony they've caused all of us." |
|
||||||
 |
DepriveInstantAs an additional cost to cast Deprive, return a land you control to its owner's hand. "That would have brought shame to you as a mage. Tell you what-I'll keep your secret." |
|
||||||
 |
Reality SpasmInstantChoose one - Tap X target permanents; or untap X target permanents. From the moment the first Eldrazi spawn squirmed free, everything on Zendikar took on an adjusted meaning, a new slant toward or away from the waking giants. |
|
||||||
 |
Unified WillInstantCounter target spell if you control more creatures than that spell's controller. "We're glad to be of service-to be an audience to your failure." |
|

Rest for the WearyInstantTarget player gains 4 life. Zendikar is a brutal taskmaster, but sometimes it offers unexpected solace. |
|
||||||
 |
SmotherInstantDestroy target creature with converted mana cost 3 or less. It can't be regenerated. "Before I hire new recruits, I test how long they can hold their breath. You'd be surprised how often it comes up." |
|
||||||
 |
Urge to FeedInstantTarget creature gets -3/-3 until end of turn. You may tap any number of untapped Vampire creatures you control. If you do, put a +1/+1 counter on each of those Vampires.

Into the RoilInstantKicker "Roil tide! Roil tide! Tie yourselves down!" |
|
||||||
 |
Trapmaker's SnareInstantSearch your library for a Trap card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. "Trapmaking is an art. The trap is a corporeal riddle, a battle of wits between its creator and whatever it lures inside." |
|
||||||
 |
Punishing FireInstantPunishing Fire deals 2 damage to target creature or player.
|
|
||||||
 |
Seismic ShudderInstantSeismic Shudder deals 1 damage to each creature without flying. "The land here seems go out of its way to kill you." |

 |
TanglesapInstantPrevent all combat damage that would be dealt this turn by creatures without trample. "The blood of the forest is beholden to no one." |
|
||||||
 |
TerminateInstantDestroy target creature. It can't be regenerated. "I've seen death before. My mother succumbing to illness, my comrades bleeding on the battlefield . . . But I'd never seen anything as dreadful as that." |
|
||||||
 |
Colossal MightInstantTarget creature gets +4/+2 and gains trample until end of turn. "Never corner a barbarian. You become the path of least resistance." |
|
||||||
 |
Zealous PersecutionInstantUntil end of turn, creatures you control get +1/+1 and creatures your opponents control get -1/-1. "Jharic returned from Grixis changed, a haunted look in her eyes. She destroyed them with an unholy glee that made me shudder." |
|
||||||

Fight to the DeathInstantDestroy all blocking creatures and all blocked creatures. When a battlefield falls silent, it's rarely due to a cease-fire. |
|
||||||
