Description
Released in 1996 as part of the Alliances expansion, Awesome Presence (card number 23b) is a blue common Enchantment — Aura card. Designed with a mana cost of one blue mana, this card allows players to attach it to a creature, providing a defensive utility that complicates opponent strategies. The card's effect forces defending players to pay {3} for each creature blocking the enchanted target, creating a tactical hurdle for any aggressive deck. With its simple rules text and iconic blue border, it remains a recognizable piece of Magic history for fans of the game's early eras.
