Description
Released in 2006 as part of the Coldsnap expansion, Rime Transfusion stands out as an Uncommon Snow Enchantment — Aura within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Card number 68 in the set, this foil variant showcases the distinct icy aesthetic that defined the block's theme. Designed by Jeff Nentrup, the card carries a mana cost of one generic and one black mana, making it an accessible inclusion for decks focused on snow-themed strategies. The gameplay mechanics of Rime Transfusion offer a unique defensive option for players. By enchanting a creature, it gains a +2/+1 boost and acquires a special ability: paying one snow mana allows the enchanted creature to be unblockable for that turn, unless blocked by other snow creatures. This interplay between the Snow supertype and black mana creates interesting tactical decisions during matches. For collectors, the Coldsnap set remains a significant chapter in Magic history, and owning this foil card adds a touch of shimmering rarity to any collection. The combination of its strategic utility and visual appeal makes it a notable item for enthusiasts of the format.
